“In the old way of thinking, everything has to be fair.  The transformed life insists that I am willing to lay down my own desire for retribution, and instead return hostility with grace and kindness.”

It’s very easy to convince ourselves that we’ve been wronged and that justice must be served.  Jesus flipped our ideas of fairness upside down.  He insisted that those who knew Him, whose lives He transformed would show evidence of this by loving those they have every reason to hate.  This is perhaps one of His most revolutionary teachings anywhere in the Gospels, and it seems so foreign to everything that we do naturally.  Join us as Mike Smith, WCHS parent and Senior Pastor of Vista Community Church shares from Matthew 5:38-42, inviting us to see fairness and justice through the eyes of grace-infused faith in our Saviour.
