"Inside Out", 12 Beliefs of Jesus, Part 10
A Twelve Part Sermon Series by Bart Tarman
Jesus believed that the kingdom of God came from within and expressed itself in the outward expression of our love. All the goodness that God pours into us, in turn, is poured out to everyone as though we are the fountain that is always full and constantly flowing. But sometimes there are things that keep us from taking in God's love: fear, worry, concern, doubt. These are the things, among others, that can deter us from the full expression of God's love. Bart weaves a story of a sweater that he wore "inside out" and how it serves as an example of what we need to do in order to live the life that Jesus wants us to live.
