As we begin our new series unpacking the Gospel of John, we see the true character of Jesus and the God who sent him through those who were closest to him. In these eye-witness stories, we find Jesus coming not to people who deserved him, but people who needed him most.
Just as God fulfilled his promise to be with them then, he meets us here and now with that same promise. May you put your trust in the God who came and who keeps coming. May you take him at his word and may his love for you shape the way you think, feel, and live this week.
