In a world fixated on credentials and achievements, Jesus deliberately selected twelve ordinary, flawed men—impulsive, proud, skeptical, even a traitor and a thief—to carry His gospel to the ends of the earth. He saw their faults and chose them anyway. This should radically reshape the way we evaluate ourselves. Through their stories, we recognize our own brokenness, and we’re reminded that God delights in using unlikely people so that His power can shine through their weakness. What He did with those unlikely disciples, He longs to do with us, if only we’ll say yes to His call.
Letters from Jesus
If Jesus wrote a letter to your church, would you want to read it? If He took time to communicate what was right about your church and warn you about what was wrong, wouldn’t you want to know every word? Well, Jesus authored seven such letters to seven different churches, and at the end of each letter He said, “Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” Join us for this two part message as we examine these seven letters Jesus sent to New Testament believers.
