A good reminder that the church - the people of the Beloved Community - have always existed and will always exist apart from any political regime.
We as the Beloved Community are never guaranteed success or prosperity by the world's expectations of what makes for a "successful" religion. We are indeed told simply to go about our business of being the people who bring healing and restoration, who are engaged in tikkun olam - binding the wounds of the world.
And as Jesus is going along his way with us in this world, we can encourage others to come and follow him along with us.
