The idea that our sin separates us from God often gets misunderstood. It’s not that God turns His back on us when we mess up; it’s that we turn away from Him. The separation we feel is on our end, not His. Sin has a way of distorting our perception, making us feel ashamed, unworthy, and distant. But the truth is, God never leaves us—His presence and love remain constant, even in our darkest moments.

You may have heard someone say, “I don’t want to question God.” Or maybe you’ve said it yourself while nervously avoiding a deep theological conversation. First of all, let me just say—good for you! Respect for God is a great thing. But listen, questioning God isn’t the same as questioning your theology.

And side note - even if you were questioning God (which you’re probably not), I’m sure He’s not up there grinding His teeth in offense. The Bible tells us He’s a loving Father, not an angry judge who’s waiting to drop a divine gavel on your head.

The gospel is the breathtakingly good news that God, in His infinite love and wisdom, is working to reconcile all things to Himself through Jesus Christ. It’s the announcement that Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection were not just about saving a select few but about redeeming and restoring the entire cosmos. The gospel reveals a God who doesn’t merely tolerate humanity but passionately pursues us with a love that never fails and never gives up. It proclaims that Jesus came not to condemn the world but to save it (John 3:17)—and His victory is so complete, so far-reaching, that not even death or sin can mess up His plan.
