Surprises

Surprises

A new Pope who goes to confession and washes the feet of unbelievers.

And now a nun sweeping Italy’s The Voice.  Check it out.

Did you notice the response of the rapper guy in the wool cap?  I think that those were tears.

Okay, a cynic will say that the novelty of a nun covering pop songs will always produce some laughs.

But, don’t miss a parable of the Gospel…the Gospel is meant to surprise us with JOY.

This Sunday at the Gathering Church, we look at the account of the good news of Jesus jumping its boundaries into the world.  The New Testament book of Acts, chapter 13 tells the story.

It ends with some people being really glad.

The best test of the Gospel?

Unlikely people light up.

Like a rapper on a singing contest show.
