Adopted: Adoption As A Metaphor

Adoption might be one of the most beautiful and powerful
expressions of love that we know. To choose to love another, to
make them your own, and to allow yourself to be inconvenienced so
that you can make their life better. It’s no wonder that God uses
this metaphor to describe His relationship with us. While we were
distant from God, with nothing to offer Him, He chose to pay a
price in order to adopt us into His family. In the first week of
this series, Pastor Stephen talks about how not everyone is God’s
child. Adoption is something that is offered to all, but not
something that everyone accepts. Find out what it means to be
adopted by God and what God has planned for you if you are
already adopted by God.
