Hi Jim - I just sat down to check the WonderCafe before putting the ideas that have been perculating in my mind for a week or so down on paper.  I'm doing a pulpit supply in a small rural charge this Sunday.

My ideas are very similar to yours but I will be approaching from a different angle. 

Reign of Christ / Realm of God

What would the world look like if God ruled instead of Ceasar?

I'm pretty sure that there wouldn't be those on the inside and those outside; or an increasing gap between rich and poor.  I think there would be more sharing of resources; more concern that everybody got enough; more negotiating and more compromise (rather than war and strife, winners and losers); more compassion; more joy. 

Like Light at the end of a dark cave ... sort of Plato-Niche?

Flat debelle, that be de bo'que when chi be throw at cha ... earthy gods like that ... makes eM feel powerful even tho' they pay no tention to what's beyond a mere index ...

As misrepresentation of the real pointer ... (they didn't have that one in the Icon section) ...

The blog is great, Jim. All the best for tomorrow!
