Tragedy, Comedy, and Fairy Tale

3/12/2023

God invites us to join Him breaking down the walls of hostility and raising up bridges of hope.

The way to do that is to demonstrate the same kind of loving acceptance and mercy that Jesus himself showed.

Such a calling is not easy.
It's a lifelong and uphill struggle.
But it's more than worth it.

Because the world's hatred leads to death. God's love to leads to life.

That we prepare for Lent is more important than how we do so.

Because after these 40 days of preparation are over and Easter has arrived, we have the opportunity to experience the lasting joy that nothing in this world can give or take away.

Despite all the unrelenting horrors of the daily headlines, the Kingdom of Heaven is near us, beside us, with us.

Which means that if we Christians are anything at all, we are people of hope.

Because God is a global God, we too need to be a global people.

So thinking globally is the first step in carrying out our mission in modeling Christ in all that we are and all that we do.

The second step is to act locally. None of us can do everything. But all of us can do something.

Jesus saves us from our sins.
He saves us.
He rescues us from the mistakes of our past.

And God delivers us from the prison of the past to the promise of this brand-new year.

And in doing so, God offers us a clean slate
-- a fresh start.

Holding Our Breath - First Sunday of Advent

The decisions you think most important are not to matter at all.
But rather whether or not you decide to mail that letter.
Whether or not you decide to say goodbye or not to say it.
The afternoon you decide to cancel everything and drive out to the beach to watch the tide come in.

These are the moments souls are won or lost, including -- quite possibly -- your own.
