Flesh & Blood: Meeting God in the Neighborhood

 Beginning Sunday, December 1st

The most significant, life-changing encounters we have with God usually occur when we are weakest and most vulnerable–when uncertainty has come close to home. It’s then that God comes TO us and meets us in the neighborhood of our own pain, trauma, and trouble.

When we finally figure out that this is where God is ALWAYS found, sooner or later we muster the courage to seek him…not at home where it is safe and familiar…but in the neighborhood of other people’s pain, trauma, and trouble…where we encounter the birth of hope all over again.

The Word became flesh and blood, and moved into the neighborhood. ~John 1:14 (The Message)
