Allow your reason and logic to sit just under the mystery of God's Word. The Word is Here. Now. Hear it. Receive it! Believe it! Believe HIM! And then you will see! Because He loves you. HE SAID SO!

Our journey through the Gospel of Mark takes us to chapter 3 where the question persists: Who is Jesus? But now, a new question emerges: who are we in relationship to Him?!?

Never forget Jesus' invitation for the weary and burdened to come to Him! HE IS THE LORD OF REST. The Good News of the Reign and Rule of God in this present moment is that JESUS TAKES THE BURDEN. JESUS DOES THE WORK. He is the Bridegroom, the Savior Who has come for us! He came to buy us back, to set us free...to give us REST.

Our eyes will be continuously attracted to the miracles. We will seem to always look for God to respond to our good behavior. But this is not why Jesus came. He came to save us, to provide us with forever healing, to freely give the greatest of all miracles, to restore that which is broken and make right all things!

Are you a religious person? Because if you are, you might not like this message. Jesus tends to offend religious people. What does this mean? HE IS WILLING!

There is no more waiting. God is here and looking you in the eye! Stop trying to "be good". Believe the good news! The "Kingdom of God" means that the Active Rule and Reign of God, through Jesus, the Messiah, has invaded this world with the most unstoppable force in the universe: HIS LOVE. Turn around and go with Jesus. Do it now.

In our journey with Ruth, we've discovered that we cannot always know why things happen. But we have been given the promise that God is good and is indeed working things for good...but what exactly is that good?

How should we move forward in this chaotic world? Is there any order to be found in the chaos? Why are things the way they are? Join us for Ruth 3: In Risk!

For those who follow Jesus, there is no such thing as being unworthy, no such thing as luck, no such thing as empty words, no such thing as failure...no such thing as hopelessness. We may not understand His plan, but God is—in fact—good.

How is God involved in the day-to-day joys and hardships of our lives? The answer is not necessarily what we want to hear, but it is something we desperately need to hear! The Story of Ruth is a powerful telling of how the very ordinary, seemingly mundane events of our lives play a part in God's master plan to restore the world. In fact, maybe they play a bigger part than any other!
