“Too often, our Jesus is too weak. We’ve got a view of Jesus that somehow puts him fighting for a place in the pantheon of gods—fighting for his position in the great story of spiritual history. We need to understand that Jesus wears a crown that infinitely outshines and eternally outlasts any and every other power—that he is, as the old hymn “Crown Him with Many Crowns” puts it, the Lord ‘Whose power a scepter sways from pole to pole, that wars may cease, and all be prayer and praise.’”
