As I have contemplated the changing of the seasons, it has caused me to think about the power of God who rules over the changing of the seasons and has engineered the ever-changing, multicolored spectacle enjoyed over the past several weeks.
We also want to place ourselves in situations where we have the opportunity to influence and speak truth in love. It’s hard to do that effectively outside of meaningful connection. That’s why one of our values is that “relationship is the bridge on which the gospel travels.”
No human experience most exposes our fallen world than a reason to grieve. Every funeral I attend stirs in me the same response: this is not how it is supposed to be.
