Throughout the scriptures, we are confronted with two seemingly contrasting realities: the deep brokenness of humanity and the extravagant love of God.
Jeremiah 4 paints a picture of human sinfulness. Left to our own devices, we move not only towards destruction, but towards utter desolation. We see this in our individual tendencies, our relationships, and the systems of our world which always seem to bend towards oppression.
And yet, our God is not content to leave us there. By the overflow of his grace, He calls us even when we are far away (1 Timothy 1:12-17).
This extravagant grace is messy as it calls to the outsiders, those who would not otherwise be invited into "proper" religious circles. And it is not a gentle call, but a reckless, journey to find those who are lost.
The extravagant grace of God both comforts and (appropriately) freaks us out. It comforts us because it means that our mission is not dependent on what we do. It freaks us out because our mission is not dependent on what we do. And it means that we don't get to control who is part of God's family.
Join us Sunday as we see to live in this genuinely re-orienting reality of grace.
