Honestly, I'm just so tired of hearing the incredible Good News about Jesus being usurped by storytellers who insist on starting with bad news. Who insist on handing out tracks that tell me that I'm going to hell or that I have earned hell. There is so much baggage, that we all carry, associated with that message. 

So, let's drop that message.

It's time to tell a new story ... which is actually just the original story. And its starts in Genesis 1 with peace, color, nurturing and life. Yes, we break the peace and we continue to break the peace. We seem to have a fascination with death - a connection to it. There is a pattern in the narrative of scripture that tells us this. But along side that pattern is another pattern ... at least an equally important one, if not much more important. A pattern of a God that restores the broken peace and the broken people.
