Faith in the face of an ice storm: Is God a parachute in my plane?

Published 4 months, 2 weeks ago
Description

As a major ice storm approaches that could affect more than two hundred million people, we reflect on our collective impotence in the face of nature, even in the most technologically advanced age in human history. Faced with forces we cannot control, it makes sense that every civilization has turned to religion—but in a post-Christian culture, faith is often dismissed as a placebo effect or outdated superstition. The question, then, is whether we relate to Jesus transactionally—as a “weather god,” a “healing god,” or a “spare tire” in our car—or whether we experience the deeper reality of the Christian faith.
