In that freedom we found joy. We found true friends, lasting accomplishments and a full life, never afraid of what comes next.

Amazing. God, for the sake of his Son, Jesus Christ, freely and fully forgives all sins to all people. We don’t have to meet God halfway.

With every confession and announcement of forgiveness, Christ’s forgiveness passes the test. We are his and he is ours. He goes with us.

God is on our side--always was. He so created this world that his thumb was always on the scale, tipping it in our favor.
