We don’t give the people we consider villains a second thought. They were born rotten, destined for evil from day one. But if we take another look at some of the most infamous villains of all time, we may find they’re more human than we thought. We may see ourselves in their reflection.
We might find we’re walking the path of villainy – and once we see that, we can turn toward God’s life!

If You Want to Go, You Have to Leave
Becoming the people God calls us to be is a journey of discovery. A journey requires that we change, which can be scary, painful and difficult. The prophet Malachi offers words of hope: that even though the change is difficult, God is with us, shaping us into the people who will be ready to live in the future God is preparing us for.
From Series: "What to Expect When We're Expecting"
The future can be a scary thing – especially because it doesn’t come with a roadmap. But when God calls us, we rarely get all the details. How do we move forward faithfully when we don’t know where we’re going? Advent invites us to anticipate well, to look to our fathers and mothers as they longed for God’s rescue. Their stories teach us how to hope well and move forward faithfully.
