This is a great pastoral word, brother. Thank you! We would do well to regularly keep these truths before us. I especially appreciated your third point -- A kind of biblical realist perspective. Our hope stretches far beyond the desire for a better year and lasts forever :)
Amen, brother. There is a kind of sweetness though when our theology becomes practical over the course of following Christ.
As an aside, really enjoy your writing! Also noticed that you’re serving in a similar pastoral role as me. Would love to connect sometime and talk discipleship strategy!

Thanks, Drew. As you can imagine, the third point comes from learning it the hard way.
