The Humble Gaze of the Gospel (05/30/'24)

The Humble Gaze of the Gospel Dear Friends, I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to share a reflection on the profound nature of the gospel of Jesus Christ. In the gospel of Jesus Christ, humanity is seen not through the lens of righteousness, but through the veil of our own distorted lives. We are damaged, hypocritical, for falsehoods and evil weave through the fabric of our existence. The gospel’s gaze is sharp, its spirit a critique and denial of this present world. It speaks of a kingdom that humbles itself, refrains from quarrel, finds contentment in lowliness. In humility, the kingdom of God serves the weak, the sinners, the outcasts. For it is not in grandeur that divinity resides, but in the quiet service to the least among us, reflecting the heart of Heaven. May this perspective bring peace and clarity to your journey. Blessings, Pastor Steven G. Lee (June 4, 2024)
