When John the Baptist was arrested, Jesus knew then that things would be difficult for him. Yet, after miracle upon miracle, Jesus’ disciples assumed the Messiah’s life would be defined by power. The real power in Jesus’ life was the power of love. The question of the ages is this: why is love such a threat? Why did Jesus unsettle folks so much that they preferred to have him killed? Our scripture reading is Mark 8:31-38.
