When you have the opportunity to share the Good News about Jesus with a friend, I want you to be able to explain what we believe. James Choung’s little booklet, “Based on a True Story,” unpacks the big story of the Bible using a simple diagram. This week we learned that the human ache for a better world points to a perfect world that once existed. There’s no need to get caught up in the evolution vs. creation debate to recognize that God created everything flawlessly. The portrait of God’s creation in Genesis 1 -2 is one of perfection and purpose. There is harmony with the natural world as humans care for the planet and the planet cares for us. There’s relational harmony between human beings, not strife, deceit, or abuse. And, there’s loving intimacy between God and people. In short, we and our world were Designed for Good. If you missed this message, you watch it on our YouTube channel or listen on our podcast.
Yours for Christ,
Pastor Steve
