God invites us to seek Him… He shows us the road to travel… And He provides the spiritual nourishment for the journey. But these will do us little good unless we make time in our hurried, distracted lives to use them.

Contrary to what Dan Brown or other 21st Century pseudo-scholars may argue, the Bible was not haphazardly or nefariously collected into a book of pet-doctrines by an elitist patriarchy! It was much more intellectually, theologically, historically, and spiritually informed.

“You can shut [Christ] up for a fool, you can spit at him and kill him as a demon or you can fall at his feet and call him Lord and God, but let us not come with any patronising nonsense about his being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us.” — C.S. Lewis

Where caricatures often paint God as angry, callous to our human situation, and distant, he reveals himself to be a God of steadfast love, intimately and powerfully involved, and ever-present in our lives. And that love is eternally magnified in the person and work of Jesus!

The one who called stars into being will also call his own from death to life. Jesus’s power over death is absolute and it is the only hope we have in the face of our inevitable end. But what a glorious hope it is!

Tim Keller pointedly states, “To stay away from Christianity because part of the Bible's teaching is offensive to you assumes that if there is a God he wouldn't have any views that upset you. Does that belief make sense?”

C.S. Lewis said so profoundly, “If I find in myself desires which nothing in this world can satisfy, the only logical explanation is that I was made for another world.“ That other world is the Kingdom of God and through Jesus, we all have the invitation!
