Today we're reflecting on the changes that have taken place in us in the nearly three years since we discovered the message of the Great Renewal. It came to us by way of John and Blaine Eldredge and a series of five episodes from the Wild At Heart podcast they recorded in 2000. You can find those episodes from September and October 200 on WildAtHeart.org/rhplay or wherever you listen to podcasts. Look for the first episode titled "Time To Get Honest About Our Ambivalence."
When we first heard what we now know to be the real Gospel of Jesus Christ, the message that Jesus preached and so did His first followers, we felt like we were hearing brand new information. In point of fact, this message goes back to the beginning of creation. In the last three years we've discovered Tim Mackie and John Collins at Bible Project (bibleproject.com), N.T. Wright (ntwrightpage.com), the late Dallas Willard (dwillard.org), the late Dr. Michael Heiser (drmsh.com), and many others who have fearlessly and compassionately preached this message for decades. It's the message that God is not mad and He is all about reuniting heaven and earth into a global Eden. That was His plan all along. Since finding the Gospel of Jesus Christ, we have been born again, again. It's the most liberating and exciting thing we've ever experienced...and we're not cooling off or slowing down!
We hope that you'll check out our other episodes along with all the resources we've linked here. But more than that, we hope you'll open your heart and hands to discover just how much God loves you, that He went to the cross on your behalf just to change your mind about Him.
