The audio is uploaded on our website. Click here to check it out if you missed it. Here's a recap of what we talked about:
- God is an intervening God. He intervenes because He loves us and wants to know and be known by us.
- God's words of judgement are also His words of grace. They are gracious words of warning, letting us know that it's not too late to change or head in a different direction.
- ALL of us occasionally run from God
- When we're running from God, we're really running from the call of God.
- A warning sign that we're on the run is we distance ourselves from the "stuff" of God. Scripture, prayer, worship and connections with other followers become less important to us because those are some of the ways God's call is present in our lives.
- Even when we're on the run, God still manages to get our attention.
- Every time God gets our attention we have a decision to make; do we keep running or do we get honest?
- When we get honest and stop running, God intervenes again and is there to forgive, and to save, and to restore and to put us on a different trajectory for our future.
- The cross is the symbol of God's ultimate intervention in our lives.
