“For only after we have understood how the cross and the kingdom go together will we be equipped to consider how Christians carry with them the marks of Jesus’ death and the message of Jesus’ kingdom. We can’t be content with either being a cross-centered church or a kingdom-centered church.“

“The early church had to negotiate empire, resist empire, flee from empire, suffer under the empire, offer apologies for itself to the empire… until the Church became one with the empire.”
