Episode 247: Proper Payback

This Is WholeLife

Jesus Doesn’t Make It Easy – ‘Proper Payback’

You punch me, so I punch you back. In the Bible, it’s called the lex talionis or the law of retaliation. Of course, one of the problems is that, if you punch me, I don’t want to just punch you back; I want to punch you back just a bit harder than you punched me. Rather than revenge, how do we move to reconciliation? Jesus' teaching about proper payback was meant to stretch us.

This week one of our #WholeLifeTakeAways asked: When has someone gone the extra mile for you? How did that feel?

So, what about you? Who went the extra mile for you? How amazing did it feel and did it make you want to pass on that feeling to someone else?! Let us know by using one of the following:
