Prayer is complicated and simple all at the same time. The goal? Also complicated. Sometimes we treat God like our personal genie who exists to grant our wishes, or a Divine Super-sized Santa to deliver goodies because we've been so good. Perhaps the greater goal though is simply finding ourselves in the Presence of God where we find all our needs meet on the deepest levels. Presence is where the healing, hope, love, and all the other things that fall under the umbrella of shalom reside. Good news! A lot of smart people offer a lot of wisdom to guide us toward meaningful engagement with God in prayer.

Most Christians know Jesus said to do this. Most Christians I know wish he hadn't. Most Christians I know struggle with this. Maybe it's more of a heart thing than a mind thing - maybe we can't think our way to it but have to love our way through it.

Jesus told his follows to turn the other cheek, go the extra mile, and give the shirt off your back. From our vantage point, this sounds like instruction on how to be a nice person. To the original audience however, it was coaching on nonviolent resistance.

Jesus said do not resist an evil person. Hmmm. Do we agree? What could he have meant? Get ready to be disturbed.

Jesus made it simple - "let your yes be yes and your no be no" - which is good, wise advice for living with integrity. Yet his wisdom leads to deeper principles that cause us to reflect on how we use our words. Very relevant for this time and all time.
This teaching is part of a year-long series on Jesus' Sermon on the Mount, informed by excellent essays found in the book, "Following the Call: Living the Sermon on the Mount" (Plough Publishing House: 2021).
