A few thoughts to my African American family at Riverview Church in light of George Floyd’s killing (everyone else is welcome to listen in, too).
When we believe in Jesus, He begins making us into His Church. We, together, become His dwelling place. We are a living house because He lives in us.
As followers of Jesus, we are fully perfected in God’s sight and at the same time are being made holy. But sometimes it doesn’t feel that way, right?

We often think of happiness and joy as the same thing, but they’re completely different.
There’s nothing going on in the world today that is even the remotest a surprise to God. He has seen everything that is going to happen in the world, from beginning to end.
You are eternally loved by God and you are eternally in His eyes perfect. At the same time, you will not be surprised when you are not perfect and other Christians around you are not perfect either.
We often don’t think of our sins as that big of a deal, but every sin deserves the penalty of death.
There are two types of rest that each one of us desperately needs, and the way to that rest is the same for both.
We can’t face temptation alone; we can’t face suffering alone; we can’t face death alone; we can’t face any of this alone.
