Into our hurt, anxiety and chaos Jesus says, Come to me and I will give rest for your souls. But so does every other marketing campaign. What makes his invitation so different? Why listen? Why do it?

Follow Jesus. How? Three things to get us started. We know it'll be marked by new relationships, new purpose and new power.

We put destinations into Google Maps all the time. Destinations matter. Forget your dream destination for a moment. Let's take a moment to continue where this world is headed. Let's talk about that, and let's use hoops!

Both are essential wings of the beautiful ministry that Jesus modelled to us and called us to follow him in.

In short, everything.
