Heading Home with Jesus

Jesus had no earthly home. 

He lived and ate with the poor, healing them first by seeing them. He established the Kingdom of God by inviting people to abandon allegiance to Rome and Israel and join Him. Jesus taught and lived compassion, justice, worship and mission. Israel's religious leaders ended Jesus's life by embracing the power of their Roman oppressors. 

Jesus died to save what He loved. Us. 

Rather than stamping out Jesus' Kingdom movement, His death set it on fire. After the resurrection, His disciples willingly gave their lives to take the Kingdom and message of Jesus to the world.

And bring them all to their eternal home.
