Simon Parke writes:
Everyone has their own Jesus; so who is Jesus to you?
He can sometimes feel like a figure trapped behind a paywall of credal statements which is not the best basis for a relationship.
But then what do we want from Jesus – his humanity or his divinity? A mystical Christ, a moral teacher - a saviour, a healer, a raging prophet or a friend?
Based loosely on my novel, ‘Gospel, Rumours of Love’, here is a retreat around our perception of, and relationship with, Jesus. Where do the facts end and our interpretations begin?
And what energies does he offer for the world we inhabit today? Did Jesus have an energy the church has lost?
No party line will be offered on this retreat; but what will be offered is space and stimulation for your own search.
So, who is Jesus to you? Is this your moment, in the safe arms of the Othona Community, to behold the man afresh?
