November 22: Identity Politics in Matthew
Summary: In today’s parable from Matthew we once again learn that Jesus identifies with the least in the community, not with the powerful. As Christians, we are called to minister to those who are left out of economic prosperity. We are called to see Jesus in those who are suffering. When we see his presence there, we begin to think differently, and are able to experience the love of Christ that will reign in human hearts for eternity.
