Are you tired of behavior driven Christianity?
Exhausted by rules and the feeling that you can never quite measure up? Are you finding yourself questioning the traditions of religious Christianity?
Do you long for more?
I totally relate to all of those questions, and I am on a hunt for the real Jesus. It feels like He has gotten lost in the midst of traditional and religious Christianity. We believe a lot of things about God, but how many of us have actually met Him for ourselves?
I was raised in a conservative sub-group of evangelical Christianity. It was characterized by legalism and religious activity. I was the good girl following the rules until one day Jesus showed up and changed everything.
As I got to know Jesus for myself, I began to realize that the God I knew and the god I was being taught about couldn’t be the same Person. This started my journey searching for the real God. What, or rather Who, I found continues to amazing me!
“but we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles,” 1 Corinthians 1:23.
The real Jesus has always confounded people who are living their life by a set of rules. He has always seemed foolish to human intellectuals. But I’m okay with that. I’ve met Someone worth tripping over to discover the truth, Someone worth looking like a fool to find. Will you join me in my search?
