    The Sermon on the Mount is an invitation – to taste and see this God, to join his club and deepen his kind of life skills.

    Turning the Other Cheek I’ve been trying to figure out a realistic application for turning the other cheek ever since as a young person a mentor of mine once pointed out to that to teach his son this attitude was a license to getting him bullied at school.
