The Quest for Meaning

Every person is searching for meaning.

Every person is looking for something to tell them that their life is worth something. At the core of that desire is a Biblical truth: you matter, and your life has been designed to make a difference.

As counterintuitive as it feels, the Bible teaches that mattering in this life has very little to do with what we accumulate, achieve, or acquire. Mattering happens when a person knows they are valued and knows they have value to give.

This means that the answer to our search isn't found in what we store up for ourselves — it's discovered in what we give away.

Terminal - Love Completely

Each week, we have forced ourselves to answer the question…How would our lives change if we started living like we were leaving? How would our lives be different if we knew we only had a few days left to live? Since Easter weekend we have been more intentional in trying to calibrate our lives around eternity. We’ve been trying to live with the full understanding that this life is brief but eternity lasts forever. We’ve been trying to live as if we were leaving. This is the very reason why Jesus’ life was so revolutionary. He didn’t come to stay he came to leave. He didn’t waste a day, a moment, a conversation…because he knew how short his life would be. As we have said, He lived passionately. He loved completely and He left boldly. We have discussed living passionately and last week discussed leaving boldly. Today, I want to look at what it means to love completely. The way Jesus lived his life has taught us many things…but one of the crucial things is the value he placed on relationships.
