“Jesus loved the world to much to be a people pleaser - what he said often disturbed people, especially the powerful, the religious and the wealthy”

Randy Woodley
“Jesus, properly understood as shalom, coming into the world from the shalom community of the Trinity, is the intention of God’s once-and-for-all mission. That is, the mission of birthing and restoring shalom to the world is in Christ, by Christ, and for the honor of Christ.”
Randy Woodley, Shalom and the Community of Creation: An Indigenous Vision (Prophetic Christianity
