It has the ugliness of a trapped rat, which gnaws its own foot in an effort to escape.

I think people are hungry for Jesus, but they are starting to realize they have been fed a cheap American version, and they are rightly rejecting this counterfeit.

People are tired of an American Jesus. They want something that’s more…
