Invasion

Tired of trying to sort it all out? On overload from trying to manage the information universe?

Just remember: the Invasion has already occurred. It happened in the backwater of the Roman Empire in an insignificant cave-stable two thousand years ago. From now on, everyone is your neighbor. All we have to do is accept who we truly are and live on grace in the meantime in faith, hope, and charity with our neighbors. All of our neighbors.

Everything that we do should be a response to this Invasion of Grace, particularly in imitating the One Who invaded this planet that was under the dominion of a rebellious power who, in turn, held our species in slavery to sin and death. (For the history of our gracious Invader, read the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.)
