August 11, 2024: When Being Right is All That’s Left - Michael Hidalgo

  • Summary

  • We live in a culture that has placed “being right” on the top of the list of important things for us. Being right about politics, about religion, about cultural issues … we are so intense about this we can even lose sight of the true conversation at hand. And so we have Jesus speaking to those who are “confident in their own rightness.” He tells them a story …

    The trick with this story is the one who says, “I am wrong” is actually the one who is right. And this is the difficulty for the hearer. All of us are wrong, in some way, shape or form. Whether it’s the way we live our lives, the things we think, say or do … we all must cry out for mercy. To do this takes humility and a faith strong enough to say “I may be wrong.”

    How would our world look if we were those who held “our own rightness” loosely? What would it be like if we were those who fell to the ground, beat our breast and spoke boldly of our failure and need for mercy? Perhaps this kind of action would be transformational, not just for us, but for those who experienced this kind of person.
