Original Fellowship with God
God’s mission of love began even prior to the Garden of Eden. Before the foundation of the world and throughout time, He progressively moved toward one goal: the restoration of His original relationship with man.
Before they were banished from the Garden, Adam and Eve were provided with coverings made from the skins of the animals. This act of God—sacrificing the lives of these animals to cover the shame of man—was a foreshadowing of Christ’s future sacrifice, which provided us with true and complete salvation.
Jesus came to earth on a mission of love. Through His great sacrifice, we are restored to our original place of fellowship with our Creator.
Activity: Do you know someone who doesn’t feel at home in church? Invite them to attend the next service with you so they don’t feel alone.

About this Plan
On a quiet night 2,000 years ago, angels brought news of the Savior’s birth to shepherds tending their flocks—and after hearing the news, those same shepherds left everything to seek a baby in Bethlehem. All these years later, the invitation has not changed. Join Dr. Charles Stanley as he helps you draw near to the Savior, encouraging you to make time to rest in the Father’s love this season.
