What is the Church? What is her mission? And why does it all matter? Many of us have a shallow view of the Church and would not answer these questions the same way God does. The Church is the clearest, fullest, and most beautiful depiction of the love Jesus has for his people.
In this message we will see how: The Church is all people who belong to Jesus and our mission is to care about what God cares about.
The Bible is one cohesive story written over the course of 1500 years, by 40 different authors recording the history of God’s unwavering extension of His love to humans who immediately chose to go their own way when given the choice. The Bible isnt just a history book or a self-help novel. It is a record of God’s love being made known and available to humanity. Long Story Short is an effort to give teenagers a general handle on the expanse of biblical history with a special focus on events & people that are foundational for an accurate Christian worldview. We hope that students walk away from this summer series with a greater hunger to dive into God’s word, learn more about God’s love for them, and live their lives in light of the love they have experienced.
