PASTOR JEFF'S PONDERINGS

Playing Soccer with Lions

3/10/2016

 
Okay, there are a few obvious questions that come to mind watching this short video:
  1. Who wears a suit and tie while walking around a wildlife sanctuary in Africa (I've never been to one, so maybe this is common place)
  2. Who wears a suit and tie while playing soccer?
  3. How can I get to play and wrestle around with lions (with or without the suit and tie)?
It's surprising when those who shouldn't be getting along actually do. There's something really attractive about the idea that a predatory animal could act like an over-grown house cat. Maybe that's why some people want to have exotic and/or dangerous animals as domesticated pets (it usually doesn't work out in the end).

What about relationships between people who shouldn't get along? I'm talking about people we have declared our enemies because of any number of reasons. Perhaps the person hurt you physically or emotionally. Even if the offense took place years ago, we too often carry the hurt around with us. We certainly wouldn't think of playing a game of soccer with him or her - we'd rather not even see them on the sidelines watching!
​
This Sunday, March 13th, we'll be talking about the concept of forgiveness. It's one of the main things that keeps us from experiencing the abundant life and freedom that Jesus promises. I hope you'll be able to join us - it could be the beginning of a whole new level of freedom for you!
