Join us at Logan as we continue with our current series, Church in The Mess. This week Pastor Henry challenges us to find true spiritual rest by confronting our impulse to strive and perform, reminding us that the gospel is not about what we do, but about what is already done. The resurrection is proof the heavy lifting is complete. True rest is not weakness but an act of worship, demonstrating that you trust God more than your own effort and strength. We can trust Him to stop striving and come to Him to rest, exchanging the chaos of endless options for the peace of a settled direction.
Now if Christ is proclaimed as raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised. And if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain and your faith is in vain. – 1 Corinthians 15:12-14 (ESV)
