Come Back to the Cross

We’ve lost our center.

Our focus on the Cross has faded; making the conversation you’re about to hear necessary. The world and, in some cases, even the church is offering a watered-down Gospel. Rather than looking past the Cross as a place of burden, let’s start to look to the Cross as a place of intimacy.  Lingering where Jesus died for you may make you uncomfortable. You may even question the power behind an event that took place more than 2,000 years ago. We want to challenge you to stay and listen to the invitation God sets before you. The power of the Cross is very much alive, active, and waiting for you.

Do you feel the weight of the desire to be changed from the inside out? It’s time to re-center our gaze on the Cross. Listen in as Josh and Kit explore 3 ways to access the power of the Cross in your life with God: Sanctification, Healing of Wounds, and New Identity.
We encourage you to say yes to a deeper understanding of the Cross. 

We hope you will set the bar high and come expectantly to the Cross. Lean in and listen to the invitation before you on “Becoming Whole.”

Highlights:

We’re coming to a Wounded One, our Wounded Savior, our Loving Wounded Lord; and there’s an intimacy that takes place there because we’re coming as wounded ones to our Wounded Savior.

It’s a gift of love from God and it’s a chance for us to say, ‘God you are the one who loves me, sees me, understands me, created me. I’m going to trust you with these really deep things and you’re going to receive them from me.’

He doesn’t undo what happened to us but he can transform it into something that’s meaningful. He can withdraw the toxic shame that comes with some of the wounds we experienced.

Homework:

Reflect on the things spoken over you, things people told you. You can see where you lost your identity when you accept what others told you as the truth about you. Let God refute it with HIs truth about you. It takes courage and patience and honesty. The reward is freedom.

Find a prayer buddy to pray scriptures that remind you who you are as a new creation in Christ.
