The Creator of the Universe is inviting us to lay down the burdens we’ve been carrying and join Him in healing and restoring the world.
Through Christ, in every moment of our lives, we can join God’s Movement or miss it. Or even fight against it. “The Kingdom of God is at hand”, Jesus taught over and over, and every moment is pregnant with the possibility of joining God’s redemptive action.
God has not given up on this world.
BUT if you’re like me, you have to admit how often you find yourselves consumed (and exhausted by) your own dreams. And then even when you realize this and decide to join God’s dream for the world, you quickly discover that you don’t have the tools or character or resources to do it. (Rom 7)
And so many of us choose one of two paths: (1) try harder and wear ourselves out, or (2) give up. But thankfully, Jesus offers us a third way. The easy yoke. The narrow road. What does He say?
“Come to ME…. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace.”
This is what we want to give our entire lives to: Learning from Jesus how to become the kinds of people who can join His revolution of overcoming evil with Good. It is only by Grace, but we all have an important part to play.
Join us as we learn the unforced rhythms of grace.
