Jesus didnโ€™t come as a grown-up. She came as a baby, small but filled with unlimited potential. Because she was a baby, Jesus was able to adapt herself to what she saw and heard growing up. With that flexibility, she embraced us and presented the Gospel of inclusion, the Gospel saying God loves everyone.


The Church is not a grown-up either. None of the doctrines, ecclesial systems, or the Scripture is adult. They are growingโ€”or supposed to growโ€”featuring the most beautiful. We need to check if we havenโ€™t treated the Church as an adult. Didnโ€™t we shut the possibilities of the Church by saying the Bible and Christian teachings are fixed and permanent? Didnโ€™t we block its growth?


Jesus didnโ€™t come as a hetero-normative dude. They came as a queer, different but filled with unlimited potential. Because they were queer, Jesus was able to adapt themselves to who they are and whom they love. With that flexibility, they embraced us and presented the Gospel of inclusion, the Gospel saying God loves everyone.


The Church shall not be hetero-normative either. None of the doctrines, ecclesial systems, or the Scripture should be trapped in stupid boxes. They are changingโ€”or supposed to changeโ€”featuring the most beautiful. We need to check if we havenโ€™t shut the possibilities of the Church by saying the Bible and Christian teachings are fixed and permanent? Didnโ€™t we block its growth?


Thatโ€™s why we celebrate our baby Jesus, our queer Jesus: to remind ourselves that the Church is also a child and queer. Merry Queristmas!
