Walking alongside others, especially youth, in ministry one of the most common topics is God's love. As humans hoping to connect with a spiritual being in God, we find it hard to believe that God loves us. We hear God loves us unconditionally, but do we believe it? We see how hard it is to make relationships work among humans, and we convince ourselves it must be that hard between us and God. Not only that, but no one knows us like we do. All the dark thoughts, evil impulses, and sins that can be a part of our story must surely disqualify us from the love of God. And yet, Jesus tells simple stories to remind us it does not. A lost coin, a lost sheep, and a prodigal are the examples he used to teach God's love.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
