Stranger than Fiction
Religion does a good job of making us feel better about our lives. We go to church, we pray, we serve. But these systems often end up disconnecting us from the world God loves. How can the story of God disrupt our systems and call us back to the life and flourishing God intended for us?

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!
