Semi-Weekly Webcast: The King of Pop Magnifies the King of Kings
By Jeremy | July 8, 2009
Lionell Ritchie performs “Jesus is Love”
Michael Jackson’s Memorial Service, 7/7/09
Even in death the King of Pop mesmerized us. But what struck me most of all during Michael Jackson’s memorial service was how the King of Kings was magnified.
Here are my real-time reactions to the service, courtesy of Twitter.
++ “The King of Pop must bow to the King of Kings”: the epilogue to a memorial that will reverberate for HIStory. Thank u pastor 4ur prayer #MJ3:49 PM Jul 7th from web
++ Paris, Prince, & Blanket: The Love your daddy pursued fathers the fatherless. It’s a Love that never fails. Never ends. Never dies #MJ3:47 PM Jul 7th from web
++ We can’t get enough of Jesus at this funeral; evn the politicians invoke his name. Why? No longr dead, he still comforts those who mourn #MJ3:11 PM Jul 7th from web
++ MLK’s kids can preach. The apples don’t fall far.2:59 PM Jul 7th from twidroid
++ Loving that even as we celebrate the King of Pop, the King of Kings is getting air time on CNN. “Jesus is Love.” And #MJ pursued love2:37 PM Jul 7th from web

++ #MJ: exhibit A tht genius, fame & wealth aren’t enough 2bring peace, meaning, or community. Grasp love if hands arent holding othr things2:16 PM Jul 7th from twidroid
++ Lionel Ritchie sings “Jesus is Love.” Why don’t we live Jesus’ love while alive rather than just sing about him in death?2:00 PM Jul 7th from twidroid
++ The outpouring for the flawed genius that was #MJ: Love tht forgives all things? Revisionist HIStory? Idolatry? Grace & mercy? Somthin else?1:57 PM Jul 7th from twidroid
