“But who do you say that I am?’”
—Mark 8.29
He’s not asking for a theological statement,
but a personal one.
Not what he is, but who.
All the answers, even the right one,
are not what he means,
but “Who am I to you?”
Aside from what anyone says about him—
fundamentalists & atheists, theologians & wackos alike—
how does he land in your life?
Where does he touch you? Awaken you?
Scare you? Encourage you? Heal you?
Where does he lead you?
Let that be enough, and never mind
the arguments about roles and titles.
Don’t try to box him in.
Just listen.
