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.

The Missio Dei

Most of us are aware of the story. Adam and Eve, in a moment of arrogance and rebellion, broke the heart of God. God’s grand vision for relationship was wrecked by the choice of one man. Sometimes the Bible seems very overwhelming to us, but we want to make it extremely simple today. From its opening pages you see the true vision of God. He just wanted to be with us. You see that grand vision destroyed by Adam’s choice. But then you see the Missio Dei begin to unfold. After Adam’s fall, the rest of the of the Bible is a story of God’s commitment to do whatever is necessary to get us back. The mission unfolds page after page, chapter after chapter, that tells us the story of how God gets us back.
