In the Gospel of John, when Jesus speaks of his death on the cross, he refers to a story fromExodus when the Israelites had to look up at a bronze serpent in order to be healed from snake bites. Like the bronze serpent, the cross is a display of everything that is killing us–scapegoating, empire, violence, and sin. When we bring all of that to light, we can be healed. But most of the time, we would rather avoid, ignore, and compartmentalize. We make other people our enemy instead of looking at the harmful parts of ourselves and our culture.
Where do you see this tendency to deny and hide in your life, and in our life together? How can our faith in Jesus empower us to confess, repent, and heal?
