The Good News for You
Evangelism often relies on guilt, shame or fear to motivate people. But those aren't good news, and they're not where God's posture towards us begins. Jesus' baptism is an invitation for all of us to remember the heart of the good news: that we are God's beloved children, and God delights in us.
From Series: "Good News for a Change"
Talking to people about Jesus is nerve-wracking. In this Epiphany series, we're going to explore how Jesus met people where they were - and what was so good about the news he shared. Ultimately, we'll see that sharing Jesus with people is easier than we ever imagined. All it takes is a lot of love.

This is the season of the year when people start to think about monsters – ghosts and goblins and things that go bump in the night. We normally don’t think of monsters having anything to do with the Church, but we’d be wrong. The reason people tell monster stories is that monsters are a safe way to talk about things we’re not ready to admit about ourselves. We don’t want to see ourselves as selfish, unforgiving, ill-tempered. So we tell stories. We create monsters.
