RESET!!

Long time, yes.

My small group begins our RESET journey tonight! The point of this "journey" is to RESET our assumptions, perspectives, understandings/misunderstandings, and expectations, etc. about who Jesus is, and to see him for who he truly is, as shown in and through his Word.

I'm mostly stoked, as well as a bit nervous. I've recently started to realize that one of the things i probably need to "reset," is this idea that Jesus cares about my comfort as much as i do. much as i might like it to be, this is completely inconsistent w/anything Jesus says in the Gospels. Not to the say that he doesn't give a rip, but that in the grand scheme of following Jesus, it's not really about my comfort (Luke 14:26-27).

All this on the first week. This is bound to be a challenging adventure!
