UNSTOPPABLE
More than a common-interest group, social group, business, or even industry, the Church is the means by which God keeps His promise to rescue and redeem all of this broken world. When we understand, therefore, the presence we have constantly still with us and the power still at work through us we can join in with the very earliest Christians to see the Kingdom of God continue to come on earth as it is in heaven.

Woe To You
In one of the greatest take-downs ever, Jesus confronts the Pharisees, resulting in what is known as The Seven Woes. Throughout history, Christians have loved Jesus for His raw and spot-on exposure of the hypocrisy and callousness that often comes with high levels of authority. Less popular, however, is turning the mirror on ourselves. The truth about us is that modern-day Christianity has regressed into an often judgmental, unfeeling dogma. This week, we put the spotlight on ourselves and wonder if Jesus might say to us, "Woe to you."
Scripture References: Matthew 23:2-3
