““So they looked at each other. Then Audrey tells me that God designed the world for good, but we messed everything up-our world, our relationships and our relationship with God-by living selfishly for our own ends. But Jesus died for it all, and all of the junk died with him on the cross, and when he came back to life three days later, a new life was possible-here and in the life to come. We're forgiven. And one day, all things will be made right, but for now, we are sent together to be agents of healing.””
