A Distinctive Community: A People of Hunger in a Culture of Apathy

A Distinctive Community: A People of Hunger in a Culture of Apathy

On Sunday Jamie continued our Distinctive Community series by exploring distinctive Number Two: becoming a People of Hunger in A Culture of Apathy. Preaching from Luke 6:20-26 (the Blessings and Woes at the start of Luke’s account of Jesus’ Sermon-on-the-Mount) he explores Jesus’ implied invitation to a life of spiritual hunger in light of his announcement of the coming Kingdom of God. He maps out how the opposing dynamic of apathy shows up in both first century and twenty-first century culture, and in particular how apathy in our culture can develop into something further: a hunger for self-fulfilment. While hunger for self-fulfilment perversely seems to be having the unintended effect of increasing anxiety in our culture, a life of hunger for the kingdom of God offers us a pathway to radical contentment in the here and now in a way that can be deeply attractive to those around us. In reality, our hunger is also our hope, and serves as a powerful witness to our city of the good news of Jesus.
