We donʼt expect people to know much about Church. We expect to start from the ground up, and show graciously and tell clearly why itʼs still worth trusting and following Jesus – without assuming that everyone else will think weʼre right.
No Pope, Priest, or Pastor is going to stand between us and God the Father, because Jesus is the perfect mediator, and the full and complete sacrifice for our sin.
Jesus gave us a glimpse of what heaven is going to look like when he healed the sick, raised the dead and wiped away tears. And it looks great. But we know we’re not there yet, so we don’t always expect things to go well here.
