Welcome Home: To a Much Needed Rest

The Welcome Home series begins with one of the most comforting passages found anywhere in Scripture. To both the individual and a world in turmoil, God says, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” (Matthew 11:28)The Lutheran Reformation was named after Martin Luther. As a young man, Martin was terrified of God. He believed God was looking for a reason to punish him. But as Luther studied God’s Word, he realized this was not the case at all. God’s Word showed him God is actually a loving Father. God doesn’t pretend we have no brokenness or sin. Instead, he paid for it all by the death and resurrection of Christ. Scripture says that through faith in Christ, we are forgiven. God’s grace not only frees us from the fear of condemnation and punishment, but it also frees us to live a better, more peace-filled life. We have true rest in Christ’s love.Support the show~ Changing lives with Jesus! Facebook | YouTubeInstagram @dscsienna
