Summer at Grace Devotional: Comfort vs. Release (Jordan Gerding)

Welcome back to our Summer at Grace devotional series! This week, Jordan Gerding helps us pause and reflect on a topic we’re all drawn to during the summer months: comfort.After a long season of busyness, school, and structure, the summer sun can feel like a breath of fresh air—especially here in Oregon. But what kind of comfort are we actually seeking? Is it the kind that brings restoration, healing, and joy—the kind God desires for us? Or are we slipping into a false comfort that’s really just release—disengagement, apathy, and self-protection?In this honest and encouraging devotional, Jordan challenges us to lean into purposeful comfort—the kind that invites vulnerability, community, and openness. He reminds us that real rest often takes real courage.Take a moment today to ask:Am I seeking the kind of comfort that draws me closer to God and others? Or am I chasing escape?Tune in for a quick word that might just reframe how you enter this summer season.#SummerAtGrace #Devotional #GraceCityEugene #FaithAndRest #ChristianLiving #ComfortNotEscape
