Faith
The search for meaning, purpose, and relationship. Our need for love compels us to seek it out, and when we find it, share it.
-
Moving from the call stories to Jesus’s miraculous ministry might leave us with the wrong impression that this is normal.
-
So many Christians want to pretend like being a Christian is normal or that Jesus himself is normal, but his works amaze and frighten.
-
Before we leave the call stories behind, we should really deal with what they mean for us. And for the gospel itself.
-
The thing about the call stories is that we take their character for granted. Because we’re in. But they are way bigger than that.
-
The challenge of the call stories for us is that we might not understand exactly what they mean for us. We are called to enjoy a life of service.
-
What it means to believe is to live a certain way, not simply believe certain things. It requires a life of difference and effort.
