(Romans 1:18-23)

We are family on retreat, but we are also patients, fallen and flawed. We are all broken, disabled and damaged. We are wrecked. We are addicts. We are bent. AND this is why we need the GOSPEL! We all share in the universal problem of sin, and the result is that sin keeps us from connecting or reaching God. Praise God for His redemption in our Lord Jesus Christ. Yes, we are redeemed but still far from fully restored. Here, we find ourselves in rehab; a place to recover, heal, and grow.
