Beckett’s famous play depicts the emptiness of a life always spent waiting and waiting “for Godot”. It was a critique of the Christians wasted their lives waiting for a future that never comes.

To work building the Kingdom of God is the most concrete and loving of all possible lifestyles. Paul shows us why the church so much different than the cold, money-driven World System.
