Not So Subtle
From Series: "Stranger in a Strange Land"
1 Peter tells us that those who follow Jesus are Exiles in this world. We're strangers in a strange land, a people displaced, looking for home. What does that look like for Christians today?

How easily do we reduce Jesus’ new life to ‘spirituality’? We think of God’s Kingdom as one area of our lives – what we do on Sundays, or with a small group, or when we’re engaging in religious activities. But Jesus tells us stories that invite us to imagine a Kingdom so big it encompasses our whole lives. A new life that can’t be measured, can’t be quantified because it’s too big, too excellent. This kingdom is worth everything we have and more. It demands everything from us and when we give it all, we wish we could give more. This new life Jesus offers is priceless!
