Powerful report! Need to listen and share. Is prosperity really what makes us happy, what gives meaning to our lives? Incredible that what we have been saying for a long time research supports. Compassion, caring for one another truly makes the difference in real happiness. Enjoy it and share.

Ministry Matters™ | Articles | Superman and Faith
This article is a great article on Superman and Faith, especially for someone who grew-up with Superman as the greatest hero ever. Knowing the story behind the comic strip is even better than the mythology. In the article the author give us some insights into the mind of the creators of the Superman mythology and helps us visualize that what Superman stood for (a better world, a world of peace and justice reigns) is possible. Which makes perfect sense if we accept God's call for all of us, that "we might become the righteousness of God" (the justice of God, as it reads in Spanish). We might not be Superhumans but we have been empowered by the Holy Spirit to safe the world, to be agents of God's transforming power and grace. Indeed, empowered by the God to be God's presence in the midst of the world's chaos. As Paul reminds us "in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting the message of reconciliation to us. So we are ambassadors for Christ, since God is making his appeal through us; we entreat you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God." (2Co. 5:19-21).
By the way, the author does not mentioned this but "Kal-el" (Superman's Kryptonian name means "vessel of God." Enjoy and share.

Este articulo escrito por el teologo Aleman Hnas Kung es uno muy acertado y adecuado para el momento que vive la iglesia Catolico Romana. Si lo que propone Kung aqui lo comenzara a trabajar el Papa Francisco veriamos un renacer en la Cristiandad del siglo XXI. Leanlo y compartanlo. Disfrutenlo!
