Big Idea: Jesus came into our world to show us what God is really like and how we can be in relationship with Him. Now, Jesus calls us to reflect Him in the ways we live, love and give of our lives for the causes close to God’s heart. In this series, we will discover, through Jesus’ life, what it means to be truly human and how, by the power of His Spirit at work in us, we can live like Him.
