Jesus

I'm reading through The Shaping of Things to Come, Michael Frost and Alan Hirsch, and had to stop a while on this quote: His love of live was infectious. His form of holiness was not the alienating form so often associated with religious types. It was thoroughly redemptive. We have often pondered what kind of holiness was present in Jesus that ordinary people--broken, sinful, mariginalized people--loved to hang around him. They didn't feel condemned by Him. Sadly, these same types don't ordinarily like to hang around church people today. What's the difference." (p.107)
