Ecc Online: The Podcast Of Everglades Community Church

This Sunday our text is John 2:13-22 for the message "Take Up the Charge." We will talk about what it means to be the church of Jesus Christ as a countercultural movement. As Jesus entered the Temple marketplace and turned the money changers' tables upside down, we will be challenged to seek out ways where our own "personal tables" need to be turned upside down. This story is in line with many of the parables of Jesus in which the Kingdom of God turns the normal order of things on its head. This is a passage where the voice and actions of Jesus are that of a prophet. Prophets not only speak words from God; they also act. What might the Prophet Jesus be saying to you? To us?
