LIVING FORWARD = "God's calling for each of us as disciples or followers of Jesus is to pursue the life He has set before us while using the past to reference all He has done for us."

"If you want a religion to make you feel really comfortable, I certainly don’t recommend Christianity.”

- C.S. Lewis -

God's call to live forward by faith invites us to forsake settling in the comfort of living in the past.

Comfort can be a great hinderance to success or progress.

"We were better off as slaves in Egypt than as corpses here in the wilderness." (Exodus 14:12)

Comfort often inspires a strong resistance to change.

The story of the Israelites reveals to us that we can get very comfortable with bondage to the point of developing a strong resistance to change.

Comfort can be a stumbling block to God's destiny for us.

What an Israelite would say about the journey through Red Sea and the wilderness is the same thing we say about our salvation as Christians today.

Comfort has a way of making us settle for the known and resist the unknown.

God's call to live forward by faith invites us to forsake settling in the comfort of living in the past.
