Isaiah 59:15-16

In 100 carefully selected passages from the Bible, you will discover who Jesus is and why he is so significant – even life-transforming. Through both Old and New Testament readings, you will discover why God sent Jesus, what Jesus taught, how he treated people, why he did miracles, the meaning of his death, the significance of his resurrection, and what the Bible says about his second coming.

Life with Jesus involves an awakening of our passions and a focus of our time, attention, and resources. We can tend to be apathetic about brokenness in the world when we are unexposed or engaged in other activities. Rather Jesus calls us to engage, to respond, and to allow our hearts to be broken as we pursue a path toward biblical engagement and advocacy.

Thirdly, our role as peacemakers in the world around us. This is week two in a five-part series.
