The empire of Rome held the world in chains of violence and domination, yet into that same world Jesus entered as a humble presence of radical freedom. He embodied not power over but power with, not coercion but communion. God’s empire was fueled by the power of love. This reversal exposes how easily human structures confuse greatness with control, wealth with worth, hierarchy with holiness. The early followers knew another way: one of mutuality, where no one is erased or diminished, and where friendship is greater than fear. To live this today requires courage, for we too are entangled in systems that worship power. Yet in the silence of the heart, we can hear the whisper: another empire is possible, here and now.

May you rest in the courage to belong to Love’s empire.
