Is Jesus Dangerous? - Special Guest: KB
On this episode, rapper & author KB discusses his new book, "Dangerous Jesus: Why the Only Thing More Risky than Getting Jesus Right Is Getting Jesus Wrong." He also discusses how Jesus can be considered dangerous in the sense that he threatens opposition and brings victory to his followers. He highlights the politicization of Christianity and the ways in which Jesus has been turned into a mascot for cultural and political movements.
KB emphasizes the importance of reframing Jesus for different cultures, including the hip-hop culture. He talks about the gap between celebrating God and distancing from Jesus in this culture and suggests that the issue may be spiritual, as Jesus reminds people of their burdens and the need to lay them down. He also notes that Jesus can bring true joy, hope, and fulfillment, as opposed to the idols people often cling to.
The book "Dangerous Jesus" aims to help readers meet and understand the real Jesus that captured KB's heart, stirring a love for Jesus, people, and the kingdom of God. The book is available on Amazon and as an audiobook, with a foreword by Jackie Hill Perry.
