In Christ, the church is one family marked by an uncanny “Jesus-likeness,” living life future-back,

Through both valleys that test us and tables that surprise us with abundance, the Shepherd’s care carves "The Lord is my Shepherd" deeper and deeper into us until they become not just a statement we recite, but a truth we know and live by.

The earth is the Lord’s. Every street, every soul, every space belongs to Him

God’s truth doesn’t crush us. It enlivens us. His presence stirs the soul and as we hear Him say, "You don’t have to hide anymore, you are seen," we come alive, we are born anew.

Jesus alone can take our brokenness and make it beautiful; transform our barrenness into the bountiful beauty befitting his glory.

The world Christ died to redeem will not be reached by spectators who applaud His sacrifice from a distance.

The road the followers of “the Way,” walked was neither creed alone nor cause alone; it was unreserved devotion to a risen King who had already turned the world right-side up. True devotion isn't just feeling love for Jesus––its affection with feet.

The invitation of the Gospel is not just to believe what Jesus said or to behave as He did. It is to behold Him—again and again—and in that beholding, to be changed.
