The church of the Bible was dynamic, powerful, and life-changing. So why has church attendance today been declining?
When we have the certainty that God loves us completely for who we are, we can be satisfied no matter what.
God wants us to both have our own happy and satisfying life and to help others have an opportunity for that life, too.
This parable will help us understand what it feels like to be lost and how God responds to that feeling by always trying to bring us home.
When we are insecure, it can be easy to feel like we are a “nobody going nowhere.”
With insecurity, God never responds with criticism. He responds with a purpose to live for something beyond themselves.
