Part 2: Leaping into the Unknown
Abraham and Sarah are known as heroes of the faith today. But their relatives must have thought they’d lost their minds when they left prosperous Ur to follow God’s call, not even knowing where they would live. That was just the first of the leaps of faith they had to take to experience God’s promise.
The Sermon on the Mount is often acclaimed (even by non-Christians) as the greatest moral teaching ever presented. It dares us to dream of the world-changing things that could happen if we began to walk like Him.
If we are the Temple where redemption happens, what is our plan to draw people to Him? The answer is to relearn an ancient, almost forgotten practice: Hospitality. In a time when loneliness is an epidemic, when few people know their neighbors, something as simple as a meal together can be the starting place for something beautiful to happen.
