With the eyes of your heart enlightened, you may perceive
what is the hope to which he has called you. — Ephesians 1:17

Do you feel trapped in a pattern of behavior that is not healthy or productive, but you just can’t seem to make any real changes? Or maybe you are stuck in a particular way of thinking or behaving, but you don’t even know you are stuck because “this is just how life is?” Part of the genius of Jesus was that he recognized and named the personal and social dynamics that cause harm, shame, and limitation, and then he offered another way to move forward in life. This Sunday, we will explore how Jesus gives us too another way to understand ourselves and life.
