Kairos on Caffeine!

Obviously with the assignment I need to demonstrate how my chosen topic for my editorial meets kairos. To start with, the topic I have chosen thus far is the debate over caffeinated beverages in the church and the division of the issue. I feel that my topic can have kairos easily established for my topic through a variety of ways. First and foremost would be the fact that it has been a hot button issue in the church for quite a long time. We've all heard of local church leaders and others who have asked members to not drink those beverages or even been a part of these arguments for either side. The other point to help establish it would be some of the recent controversy and examination from the mainstream media from the last presidential election, mostly stemming from the controversy of Mitt Romney being seen drinking a diet coke. From this event the church released a statement clarifying that the church has no position regarding caffeine. This most recent bit goes on the big nasty stack of quotes and other opinions that I feel has plagued the church in this dividing issue.
