Jesus On Wall Street

I read some great thoughts of Shane Claiborne on the whole Wall Street activity. And saw this nice little pic which kinds of sums it up.


It seems to be a continuing theme that on the stuff Jesus actually made a stand on, the church as a whole sits idly by (or in this case, sometimes even taking the opposite stance).

I guess this was kind of covered in unChristian - that there's a bunch of people who love the values of Jesus, but who stay away from church because it seems church doesn't.

It's sad to think that there are people out there, clueless to what Jesus is actually about - because their presumptions are based on what church people do.

It is exceedingly strange that any follower of Jesus Christ should ever have needed to ask whether social involvement was their concern - John Stott
