Thy Kingdom Come? Worrying in God’s Reign
This Sunday, the Fourth Sunday of Lent, we will continue our sermon series entitled, “Thy Kingdom Come: The Great Reversals of God’s Reign in Luke’s Gospel.”
The text we will explore together is Luke 12:22-34, a passage in which Jesus employs the black ravens of the sky, and the white lilies of the field to teach the disciples about the unavailing affects of anxiety.
In the midst of poverty, Jesus instructs the disciples not to worry. In the midst of foreign occupation, Jesus instructs the disciples to seek God's kingdom. In the promise of God's kingdom come, Jesus instructs the disciples to sell their possessions and give alms to the poor.
In a world where economics are centered on scarcity and politics are ordered by power, how do we hear Jesus' instruction to worry-less and seek the Kingdom? Does the use of our possessions reflect the promise of God's coming kingdom?
