Part 2: Rescue
Smitchell   -  

This week’s message reminds us that the story of God is not about us as the heroes. It is about Him. From creation onward, God has always been both author and main character. We are the beloved objects of His affection. Yet like Adam and Eve, we often lose the plot, turning inward in fear, shame, or self-reliance instead of living within God’s loving gaze. Into this brokenness, God sent His Son, not to condemn but to rescue us. Jesus, who is fully God and fully human, entered our story, lived among us, revealed the Father, and ultimately died on the cross, bearing our sin and defeating death. His resurrection secures our own and offers us real, abundant life.

The gospel is not a checklist of beliefs but an invitation to step into God’s story through Christ, the true hero. The question now is whether we will lay down our own scripts and trust His.
