Our scars are real.

And at the heart of Christianity, is no mere fanciful philosophy nor some brilliantly innovative ethical system. At the heart is a Scarred God. This means that in a world where scars, brokenness, evil, and injustice are real, so too is hope real.

There is hope because the God incarnate knows our experience, knows our pain, and has earned trust. If God was cold and distant then He would not have come. But God out of love did come and shared in our suffering.

In this series we shall discover that as the Japanese art form, Kintsugi, takes broken pottery and repairs it with gold, so too does Jesus repair our lives with His. We can personally trust God with our pain and trauma. He is the Master Royal Artist, making broken lives beautiful.
