Going to a library might lead you to believe there are millions of stories in the world, but perhaps there’s really only one story being told by human history. It’s called the myth of redemptive violence: to win in life, you must be stronger, fight harder, and move faster. Good guys conquer bad guys with more force and violence. But then Jesus comes along and tells a completely different story: the way to move up in the world is to go down, the way to lead is to serve, and the way to conquer is through sacrifice.
