Welcome to the weekend, and welcome to the Saturday 7.
A woman from Sychar came to Jacob’s well seeking water. She left with every hidden wound in her life gently uncovered by the only person who saw her through the eyes of God’s grace. Instead of shame, she found mercy. Instead of condemnation, she found a Savior who knew her completely and still welcomed her to himself. Read the full story to see why being fully known by God may be one of the holiest forms of generosity ever.
Years ago, American pastor Matt Canlis was running. And he found that, when he was running, it was easy to stay hidden to avoid being known. But one of his professors told him, “If you want to become a pastor, go find a parish … a fishbowl where you can’t escape being known.” Find out what happened when he decided to take this advice.
When we live at the pace of culture, there’s little time for reflection. In Godspeed Pilgrim, Pastor Matt Canlis invites you to slow down, rediscover where you live, and look for what God is already doing in your neighborhood. By following two paths for 40 days – one biblical and one local – you’ll learn from Scripture and walking a set route what it means to live as God’s child.
