ep63 - Is There a Case for Christ?

I had a few convos recently and interesting questions came firing ... “When I die, if I want to go to hell and have beers with my mates, what concern is that of yours?” “If I have my truth and you have your truth, can’t we just be cool with that?” And ofc the ultimate, “Where is God?” “Is there a Case for Christ” is NOT a question about religion. Religion in my opinion is something I never want to be a part of and I say that because of my experience. A certain religious ritual that I had no say in, left me with a disability. I did not have the ‘ability’ to receive grace from God! Instead, I was caught in the trap of feeling like I had to be a good girl to have God like me and if I didn’t be a good girl then I would probably just be struck down with a bolt of lightning one day! Well, I couldn’t be a good girl and even if I tried really hard, I knew deep down that I’d never be good enough, for such a ‘Holy God!’ So, I just flipped the switch and became a bad girl and went on looking for love in all the wrong places. Thankfully, that Holy God rocked up in my life one day when I was in my 20s in a totally supernatural way! He showed me that He did love me, despite my years of wickedness and rebellion and He showed me that all my ‘badness’ could be wiped clean if I just did one thing. It was simple – but it wasn’t easy for me. In this episode I tackle those fired questions and I ask one myself. Is there a Case for Christ? Is there a reason we should want Jesus in our world, in our neighborhood, in our family or in our schools? The One who brings healing and hope, rest and restoration? Well, because He brings relationship – not religion, I believe the answer is Yes. Thanks for listening x April May.
