Once you get behind, it's really hard to catch up. Debt doesn't magically clear. Power doesn't usually volunteer to shrink. Systems drift in the direction of protecting whoever is already winning. We all know this. So here's the surprising part: buried in one of the strangest sections of the Bible is a vision for interrupting that drift. Like a reset button built into the fabric of a society. It's bold. It's practical. And... it didn't actually work. So what went wrong? And why did Jesus later say he was bringing that vision back in a completely different way? If you're open to the possibility that following Jesus might offer more than private inspiration, this week is worth your attention.
