Last Sunday we celebrated the feast of Christ the King - this is cause for celebration! Christ is our king. Kings throughout history have sometimes been cruel, arrogant, despotic, greedy and even outright wicked. Others have been wise and benevolent leaders who protected and cared for their people. No prizes for guessing which type of King Christ is – and yet he is so much more as well. So let's celebrate! Though the world we live in has always been scarred by death, injustice and sorrow, Christ our King loved it, redeemed it and restored it to hope. As followers of Jesus we pledge to spread his kingdom of life and goodness by always trying to love God and others as he did. How might we bring this kingdom of life and goodness into our homes and schools? What can we do to spread the kingdom of God?
