“UNSTUCK: Finding security & hope in Jesus’ death & resurrection”

2 POWERFUL OBSTACLES that keep us stuck:

INSECURITY and HOPELESSNESS

My value to God is not found in my BEHAVIOR; it’s found in my PERSON. He simply loves me.

FORGIVEN CHILDREN absolutely secure

“I’ve never been more loved than I am right now… Doesn’t take a trophy to make You proud, I’ve never been more loved than I am right now.”

Elevation & Maverick City Music

I don’t need to live for the APPROVAL of people because I already have the APPROVAL of God.

I don’t need to fear REJECTION by God because I’m already ACCEPTED through Jesus.

I can REST SECURE knowing my value to God is not found in

my BEHAVIOR. My value is found in my PERSON.

WHAT ABOUT HOPE?

We CAN overcome the darkness
