Already Perfect, But Not Yet
Listen now
Description
We’ve already been made perfect through Christ’s one sacrifice, and at the same time we are being perfected. God counts us as fully forgiven and righteous and yet it takes a lifetime to become who God says we already are! Do you ever feel overwhelmed by the gap between who you are today and being like Jesus?  What if, for today, we chose to love others by listening well and being curious about their lives? In putting others first, we’re becoming a little more like Jesus. Maybe you find it easy to believe that God is sovereign over the world but struggle to believe He’s working things out for good in your world. If God is sovereign that means He has a plan and placed you where He has you for such a time as this. As a boy Perry longed to know he was secure in God’s forever family. But he just wasn’t sure. He thought he had to do something heroic to get it. He didn’t know he just needed to throw his trust onto Jesus. And a kid named Lenny helped him do just that. And, Shawna shares how she learned the 1-word prayer that brought peace to her anxiety.
