What we believe about Jesus will mean everything to our relationship with God.

Jesus was most confrontational with the religious leaders of his day who claimed to be followers of God but who were more interested in their own personal gain.

How do you find rest? We might think we’re finding rest in things like vacations and entertainment, but more often than not those things are simply enjoyable distractions. The rest that God offers is for our very souls - a freedom from fear and anxiety that comes when we put our full trust in Him. It’s a rest that can endure even the most challenging circumstances life can bring.

Psalm 23 compares the Lord to a shepherd who cares for their sheep. Within that metaphor is a beautiful picture of God who perfectly leads, guides, protects, corrects, and provides for us. Our responsibility is to know and listen to the Shepherd’s voice, put our full trust in Him, and follow His lead in every aspect of our lives.

While some wanted Jesus to take charge politically, Jesus did something much greater. Through his sacrifice, he brings peace between God and man, fulfilling his role as Savior, and establishing His Kingdom for all eternity.
