A Coke commercial is a metaphor for the Kingdom?
I was recently at the Missional Learning Commons last week and one of the discussions we had was around thinking of new metaphors for the Kingdom. This commercial came to mind and I immediately searched for it on YouTube. For me, it depicts (in a caricature-esque way) how we are to be looking to join God in restoring our cities to places of compassion, love and justice. Enjoy!

Excellent metaphor on so many levels. Can’t wait to use it in a small group setting.

I used this a couple of years ago w/ our middle school youth group as a metaphor for the kingdom: the grand theft auto guy does THE OPPOSITE of what you’d expect him to do, but that which you’d hoped he would do all along… Powerful!
