Racial tension, polarizing politics, and the stress of what school will look can confuse and divide us. As we consider that this worldwide health pandemic is stretching past six months, we need to stop and see where we are. Alcohol, drugs, gambling, and pornography use are all rapidly rising. Even if we have avoided those addictions, we have allowed social distance to become social isolation, we have allowed non-stop Netflix to lull us to sleep, and we have lost our way as to what’s most important.
In an extended crisis, it can be easy to forget why we exist and what we’re even on this Earth for. So, where are we to turn? What are we to do? Jesus declares and demonstrates the answer: we have been designed to make a difference. I hope you will join us in-person and online. This short series starts on September 13 and will help you refocus and recenter on what’s most important as we kick off a new season in a new place: 14201 Cedar Avenue.
