Commentary
If you are on course with your preaching, you will sometimes notice how it seems you are saying the same thing all the time. And the truth is that you are.
The stories are myriad, the texts are many, and yet, time and time again we discover that all the trials lead back to one place, to the story of a God who will not let us alone, who will not let us be lost, who seeks to save us from ourselves, who even takes the cost of our sin upon himself and bears the pain so that we can be free. That initiative and that grace which we discover in Christ has no bounds.
