I Have a Utopian Dream

We’re all tired, and we’re all frustrated—and that shared sentiment can be heard in this talk. Sometimes it all feels like it’s too much. Too much hate. Too much anger. Everything we do seems to come at the expense of someone else, it’s maddening. Today Jay discusses the idea of love and power. Are love and power polar opposites? Can the two ever share a same space? Do churches today speak truth to power? Can we unite in diversity? Because it often feels like the powers that be fear bringing people together. Can we all work together for justice with power that has love in it and embraces diversity? Is this possible or is it just a utopian daydream? God is love. And God without love is no God at all. And power without love is power with no God at all. It’s all starting to be too much. Something has to give! How much more divided can we be, how much more divided can politicians make us? Billionaires make us? It makes us all want to scream. But luckily if it makes us all want to scream, than that means we’re all united in this frustration—and finding any way that we’re all united can be a pretty strong starting point to finding our way to this utopian dream.

This talk was given on December 15, 2024 from Seattle, Washington.
