Summary: Jesus came to a place that was broken in every way. He saw the pain of broken people, the devastation of their broken plans, and the division of a broken world; all that God created was in a state of ruin. It was a wasteland desperately seprated from all the Father envisioned and desired. Jews hated Gentiles, men oppressed women, the rich oppressed the poor and the widows were fending for themselves. But against all odds, in three short years, Jesus and His followers began turning the world upside down. Many found hope, peace and joy in His Kingdom. People began giving themselves to see His will established in their lives and the lives of others. Today over two thousand years later, Jesus wants nothing more than to enter our broken world again. This time He wants to enter through us, reaching and redeeming our neighbors and those we once avoided.
