Hello. I’m Randy Greenwald. Welcome to Greatheart’s Table.
Imagine John Lennon as a pastor.
It’s easy, if you try.
Okay, maybe it’s not that easy.
But it’s easy to imagine the song he might have written had he been a pastor:
You may say that I’m a cynic,
but I’m not the only one.
It’s not my desire to turn pastors into cynics, but dealing with people can shape a heart in a cynical direction, and we need to name that so we can fight against it.
Thanks for listening.
