It’s at the heart of everything we struggle with in life: longing to be valuable, to be accepted, to be prized, to be worth something to somebody, to have a life that matters, and God’s saying ‘You matter!

Life isn't perfect and that's the kind of world where Jesus showed up. He wasn't born in a palace on a perfect day.

It's messy. That's what Jesus was stepping into.
