“Indeed the safest road to Hell is the gradual one–the gentle slope, soft underfoot, without sudden turnings, without milestones, without signposts.” [C.S. Lewis, The Screwtape Letters]
The easiest way in life is to follow the crowd, do what others are doing, and go where others go. But if you remember you’re mother’s advice (“would you jump off a bridge if your friends did?”) is still pretty sound advice. I would also add the advice of William Penn, the founder of my beloved Pennsylvania, “Right is right even if everyone is against it, and wrong is wrong even if everyone is for it.”
Jesus comes to Earth to engage our heart and minds and to lead us from destruction and despair to hope and love, but will we go? Jesus describes himself as “I am the Way, the Truth and the Life.” [John 14:6] So what does he mean and what does it mean to be off course?
Join us as walk through the Scriptures together and find the Promise of God in Christ.
