God takes the lost, the broken and the alienated and turns them into a masterpiece.  No matter where you come from or what you’ve been through, God has a place for you.

Despite all their many differences, God’s people are united together by their common faith and their relationship with Christ

But to each one of us grace has been given as Christ apportioned it.  God different gifts the each member of the body.  When all these roles are working together the body is healthy, growing and vibrant.

Was Jesus a real person?  Did He really live?  Was He really crucified?  Is it possible He actually rose from the dead?  Is the gospel story fact or fiction?  And if it is true, what are the implications? 

 God  provides us with new life complete with instructions on how that new life is best lived.

Our relationship with God shapes our relationships with everyone else.

The Christian life is not lived in a vacuum which means at times it will not be easy.  There are forces that will challenge and work against our attempts to follow Christ.  Paul closes his letter with some advise on how to stand firm against those forces.

It takes a special person to be able to speak into your life and challenge your errors in thought or action in a way that leaves you wanting to say thank you.  That’s what Nathan did for King David.   Life Editors like Nathan are not easy to find, but they are worth the effort.

Not everyone is willing to put your best interests above all, including their own interests.  Friends like that are tough to find, but David found one in the son of his nemesis of all places!

GOD 101 – Is God a mystery or knowable?  Is God aloof or relational?  Is God indifferent or active?  What things are at the core of God’s heart and being?  What can we count on when it comes to God?
