Culture is always emerging.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\">You get what that means, right? That the world and ways around you are always shifting \u2014 always innovating. The introduction of new things and new methods continues to happen every moment of every day, whether or not we are willing to embrace it. The larger question lies in how we choose to respond. Do we welcome the uncomfortableness of the new or do we double down with a comfortable existence in the world?<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\">Regardless, shift happens.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\">Am I allowing this shift to happen in me? Always for the good? Always letting go of the old me in order to make room for the new, less comfortable me? I have to be honest with you for a moment: Every morning, I wake and have to check myself because it feels like the ground beneath my feet continues to shift. I feel compelled to regularly address the question: Who am I?<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1786\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1786\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/greaternw.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Gibson-Bill.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1786\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/greaternw.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Gibson-Bill-225x300.jpg?resize=225%2C300&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1786\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Rev. Dr. William D. Gibson<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"Body\">Around our country, overt hate and xenophobia have stepped out from behind a thin veil in a sprint to become the new norm. It\u2019s bolstered by unapologetic fearmongering and outright lies. And, it\u2019s insane. I refuse to allow it to gain a foothold among the space Christ calls me to steward in the world \u2014 a place of peace, hope, and justice. I simply refuse. Being a United Methodist demands that I \u201cdo no harm,\u201d \u201cdo good,\u201d and \u201cstay in love with God.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\">How do I allow myself to be undone and recreated by the grace of God? There\u2019s enormous value in the process of unlearning my cultural identity as an American Christian and relearning what it means to be a follower of a rogue revolutionary, un-American, Middle Eastern-born person of color, represented in Jesus the Christ. Secondly, how does my personal undoing become a part of a corporate rebirth \u2014 shifting from individual to community?<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\">I am always drawn to Matthew\u2019s telling of the Sermon on the Mount, which you can read in chapters five through the beginning of seven in the Gospel of Matthew. There, you have this 30-something newcomer, sitting on a hillside near the Sea of Galilee, with disciples, followers, and the curious gathered around. Among people who have been shaped for generations under the Law of Moses, Jesus calls into question everything that had defined their perspective of the world. He basically said in varying ways, \u201cYou have heard the law that says _______________. But now I say _______________.\u201d Jesus was rewriting the Torah on the fly! Surely people were reflecting (maybe even out loud), \u201cWho does this guy think he is?\u201d Can you imagine the internal struggle going on within those listening to Jesus? He called into question their cultural formation and challenged them to see the world \u2014 including the \u201cother\u201d \u2014 through a new lens. The lens of Christ.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\">This unlearning and relearning process can be painful, but it is a necessary part of spiritual growth and re-formation. It inescapably remains at the core of what it means to be a follower of Jesus. And if the statement \u201cculture is always emerging\u201d is true (and it is), then how are you I emerging as part of the Body of Christ within the neighborhood, community, region, nation, and world? How are our individual actions creating space for a fresh, communal voice to rise up above the bombastic noise we (and others) are hearing?<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\">As we move toward a CrossOver Year in the Greater Northwest Area, beginning this Advent season, these questions could never be more important than they are now.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\">Shift happens. While making room for others, how will you respond in the midst of it and cross over to life? A new season is dawning. Let\u2019s make the road by walking into the new.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p class=\"Body\"><em><strong>Rev. Dr. William D.
