Promise

Faith cannot last without wonder. While our spiritual lives must be intellectually and emotionally satisfying, the Gospels remind us that Christ’s love and glory are more than we can exhaustively describe or understand. Wonder leads to love, love leads to life.

Jesus tells his followers that they must be born again to follow him. This new birth signals a whole new life, one now free from the brokenness and hurt of our past.

The story of the Bible is one continuous promise, from God’s first blessing of his people to the final victory of Christ over death and sin. We are a people of this promised redemption and rescue.
