Will Smith, Chris Rock, & The Slap Heard Round The World
There's almost no way you didn't see it. At the 94th annual Academy Awards ceremony, Will Smith rushed the stage and slapped Chris Rock so hard he was still feeling it at the 95th. Rarely has there been a better contemporary instance of an age-old issue. How do I react when I've been hit? Should I just take it? Do I hit back in kind (or harder)? What if Jesus were serious about this whole "turn the other cheek" thing? Aren't I going to wind up just beaten up? Is that what God wants? Learning what to do when they strike you, this Sunday at Mendham Hills.
