Our God is a God of second chances.\u00a0 He welcomes us home to him no matter what we’ve done.\u00a0 It’s hard to believe that God even loves “bad guys” as kids like to call them.\u00a0 When Jesus was punished for crimes he didn’t commit he gave the criminal next to him the chance to receive eternal life, even at the very last possible second.\u00a0 We made some cross necklaces with Nancy Whitmore to remind us of how Jesus showed his love for us and practiced some chemistry with Jerry Jensen to exemplify how allowing the Holy Spirit into our lives creates power to do God’s will.\u00a0 Join us in April to celebrate “New Life, Just in Time!” and learn how Jesus timing was perfect for one man’s sick daughter.<\/p>\n
