Who is this man to you?

We Invite You to Get to Know Him

Jesus was more than a great humanitarian, wise philosopher and prophet. He is the greatest example and source of love and freedom the world has ever seen. He came to not only tell us the way of love but He walked the path with us and showed us that God’s love is unconditional. He defended the oppressed, fed the hungry, healed the sick, helped the weak rise up, and gave us hope. The world keeps time based on His birth because of his impact. His words from The Sermon on the Mount and the Lord’s Prayer are not just life changing teachings but a few of many examples that Jesus was who He said He was. When you read the eyewitness accounts from Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, you see that Jesus came to bring heaven to earth while teaching us that when we follow His Way, we do the same. He revolutionized humanity with His simple message and yet still transforms the hearts and minds of individuals around the world today. He taught so that we would know. He hurt so that our souls would be healed. He died so that we would live. He sacrificed so that we would receive and experience God’s love and forgiveness. He made it simple. Believe and receive.

The Unpredictable Impact of the Inescapable Jesus

Jesus' impact on our world is highly unlikely, widely inescapable, largely unknown, and decidedly double-edged. It is unlikely in light of the severe limitations of his earthly life; it is inescapable because of the range of impact; it is unknown because history doesn't connect dots; and it is doubled-edged because his followers have wreaked so much havoc, often in his name.
He is history's most familiar figure, yet he is the man no one knows. His impact on the world is immense and non-accidental. From the Dark Ages to Post-Modernity he is the Man who won't go away.

And yet . . .you can miss him in historical lists for many reasons, maybe the most obvious being the way he lived his life. He did not loudly and demonstrably defend his movement in the spirit of a rising political or military leader. He did not lay out a case that history would judge his brand of belief superior in all future books.

His life and teaching simply drew people to follow him. He made history by starting in a humble place, in a spirit of love and acceptance, and allowing each person space to respond.
His vision of life continues to haunt and challenge humanity. His influence has swept over history bringing inspiration to what has happened in art, science, government, medicine, and education; he has taught humans about dignity, compassion, forgiveness, and hope.
