Foundations Class – Session 2: What Does God Think About Me?

If the first most important question you could ever ask is "What is God like?" then the second is just as crucial: "What does God think about me?" In this session, Pastor Kelly Kinder explores the three ways we tend to see ourselves — through the eyes of others, through our own subjective lens, and through the eyes of God — and why only one of those perspectives reflects reality. What God thinks about you outweighs every opinion and every self-doubt you've ever carried. From there, the session walks through four truths that form the foundation of our relationship with God: we are sinners who have missed the mark, we are deeply loved by God even in that condition, we can be fully forgiven through the work of Jesus on the cross, and — perhaps most remarkably — we are invited into friendship with God Himself. Along the way, Pastor Kelly shares a powerful story that illustrates the kind of love God has for us, and offers an opportunity to respond personally to the gospel. This isn't just theology to agree with — it's an invitation to make it personal. If you've never explored what God really thinks about you, this session is a great place to start. This is part of the Foundations class at Trinity Community Church, taught by Pastor Kelly Kinder and Pastor Mark Medley. We are Trinity Community Church in Knoxville, Tennessee.
