Broken Reality (”Broken” Series, Week 5 of 6)

Life would be a blast if we knew that this was all a cosmic video game, a virtual reality far beyond anything we’ve created, and we’re just living our lives earning points towards high scores back in the “real world.” It would be easy. Just do good stuff, and the rest will sort itself out, right?

Unfortunately, that’s not how it works. At least, not according to any of the stories and documents regarding the God of Creation. We’re given one path: righteousness. We’re given one way onto that path: Jesus. No other method, no other way, no other belief earns us any score or merit at all. We need Christ, crucified, and nothing else will do. Today, we re-affirm what we stand for amidst a slew and slough of conflicting (and combative) opinions about the world as we know it.

Scriptures today: Isaiah 5:20 // 2 Corinthians 4:4 // Romans 12:3 // Philippians 2:3 // Isaiah 64:5b-6 // Luke 18:18-19 // Hebrews 11:3 // Romans 3:23-24 // John 14:1-3
