The Cries of Our Hearts 6/8

November 08, 2021  /  Katie Hays

We cry out for the right-sizing of empire. Most of Jesus’s subversion of empire is subtle – the palm parade satire, e.g.; or his near-constant declaration of God’s reign (this is the charge that will actually lead to a death sentence in an imperial court). The story about paying taxes is one of the rare times Jesus addresses empire overtly – and he calls not for governmental overthrow or “Christian nationalism”; he has no expectation that the empire will “legislate morality.” Rather, he advises… what, exactly? to we who follow him as citizens of empire?
