Cancel culture is real. It happens when people (usually online) attack or dismiss people they disagree with. “Canceling” can be a good thing when it’s done to challenge or boycott things that are unjust or harmful. But sometimes we can be too quick to “cancel” and become cruel. Not just on social media — we do it in our offline relationships too. In Jesus’ time, people were often “canceled” by society because they sinned, got sick, were poor or disabled, or because they were from a different country or culture. Jesus challenges our tendency to ignore, exclude, or despise people who are different from us by often making outcasts the center of His ministry.
