Wholeness

It's a whole new world, baby! God's just been cracking the lid off the word "gospel". It's so much wider and deeper than I ever dreamed!!! There's wholeness beyond freedom from sin, rejection of lies and healing of wounds. All of those things are critical and valuable, but His purposes...His true shalom peace...the kind that Jesus' death and resurrection unleashes us into...is even MORE grand. Could that be possible?? YES. The cross opens the floodgates of intimate presence. The kind that illuminates identity...mission...destiny...true and beautiful humanity. It starts with the individual, but it doesn't stop there. No way!!! The life of the gospel has social implications...environmental possibilities...marketplace magic... It goes on and on and on...

Woo! Now that's livin'... ;)

WHOLE gospel. It's the heartbeat of eternity.
