Beginnings: Who Is God & Who Am I?

The story of the universe started with God. He was and is the main character, breathing life into its every corner of space and time. He is the One and Only Creator—our Maker. At humanity’s very beginning, we were set in the communion of His company to enjoy eternal life and relationship with Him. But with one of His many gifts, namely freedom, we chose to sever that relationship and define true living and all manner of good and evil for ourselves. From there we found ourselves lost, overcome by death.
But, in Him, the story persisted. The Creator of the Cosmos thread humanity back into His glory, redeeming and reviving us back to true life, light, and freedom through His Son. In the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus, God has called us back to Himself for good. And in following him, we journey towards recovering our true identity, full of purpose and dignity; image-bearers of the One True King that may know and enjoy Him forever.
