The powerful Love of God!
“The powerful love of God is so counterintuitive that we easily scale it down in our imagination and memory and develop ways of making ourselves immune to its ultimate and life changing-challenge.” - N.T. Wright
Let us not forget or oversimplify the powerful love of God. The sacrifice God made in love should transform us and make us new.
“So, as those who have been chosen of God, holy and beloved, put on a heart of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience; bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, whoever has a complaint against anyone; just as the Lord forgave you, so also should you. Beyond all these things put on love, which is the perfect bond of unity. Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body: and be thankful. Let the word of Christ richly dwell within you, with all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, singing with thankfulness in your hearts to God. -Colossian 3:12-16 (NASB95)
Things have gone well here at the beginning of the semester. I have been encouraged by the community that is being formed at the Bible Chair. If you would like to be involved with our Campus Parents program or know how to get more involved with the Bible Chair work, please call us.
