Sin is not just an individual reality, but a corporate reality. Sin not only breaks our relationship with God, Destroys us, but also unleashes chaos in human relationships around us. Raegan Griffith guides us through a diagnosis of the broken nature of human relationships and how the gospel is the answer to the warfare, hatred, division, and violence of our world.

In our second teaching on SIN in the gospel series, we need to look at the effect that sin has on a person. John 10:10 says that the thief (satan) comes to steal, kill, and destroy. Sin is the relational betrayal of the love of God that ultimately leads to our death and destruction. Is this the inevitable end of the story? Keithen walks us through the story of Jesus taking the destructive power of sin on himself to give us the opportunity to live a life free from the power of sin.

Why is the world so messed up? If God created us for love and from love, why is there so much evil and chaos in the world? Pastor Ashley Anderson kicks off the second movement of the Gospel Series with a conversation about Sin and Separation from God. To understand redemption, we must first accurately diagnose the disease that is destroying our world and our very lives. Jesus comes to heal us, save us, and recreate us because sin has so badly warped our world. But there is so much freedom and healing available.

Why were we created? Does the Gospel message address the ultimate purpose of life, or is this only about getting out of this life and into the next? What was the intention behind God creating human beings on the earth? What does any of this have to do with Jesus? Keithen unpacks the concept of partnership with God as outlined in Genesis and carrying on through the entire story of Scripture.

Before Genesis 3, is Genesis 1 and 2. The Gospel Story starts not in our sin, but rather in the love of God and the identity we have as his daughters and sons. Raegan Griffith teaches us that our Security in our Identity can only flow from a Security in Relationship with God. When that relational security is fractured with him, the root of all insecurity emerges. The gospel is the story of God healing and restoring us back to our original intention and design. That is good news.

In our world today, there is SO MUCH CONFUSION around the message of Jesus. Who was Jesus? What was his mission? What was the result of his life and teachings? Is Jesus good for the world? In the middle of all of the confusion, we want to bring clarity. The Gospel is the TRUE story of God moving in Human History to heal creation, save humanity, and restore all things. Keithen Schwahn Leads us in our fall launch of the new Series called "Gospel".
