Does talking about religious zeal and repentance leave a bad taste in your mouth and the beginnings of shame or anger in your gut? Us too. If you've been exposed to Christianity, you might have encountered various versions of passionate people who came across judgemental and harsh, but the truth is that the Gospel really is amazingly Good News! John the Baptizer, cousin of Jesus, understood this, and Pastor Lindsey does a great job drawing that out of his story. Looking for the truth beyond your negative experiences? Check out this message!
Have you ever noticed how many Christmas movies involve someone who just does not fit in? The Grinch, Buddy the Elf, Rudolph come to mind immediately. Interestingly, the first Christmas was not much different. A sketchy family tree, a scandalous birth, a wild man running around the desert eating honey, and then there is a supposed savior of the world who entered the world as a baby. The story of Jesus’ arrival on earth actually sets the tone for the exact people Jesus came to reach: the outcast, downtrodden, meek, poor, and marginalized – what our culture terms as Misfits!
