SITG

In what might be perhaps the grossest understatement ever made, let me now assert this: Jesus had skin in the game.

He had a mission: save humanity. He didn’t devise a strategy to save humanity or create a framework to save humanity; in fact, leading biblical scholars have found no evidence that Gartner was involved at all. Jesus’ plan was forward-looking, bold enough to incur short-term losses for long-term gain, and, most importantly, actionable. He knew his audience – people, not angels – and he truly understood their pain points.

This wasn’t just idle talk. This wasn’t an edict from a boardroom in the ivory tower. This was real; it got results. Jesus didn’t relegate humanity’s flaws to the W section of a SWOT analysis. He became like us, suffered for us, and succeeded in saving us.
