Restoration in Christ: Restoration of the Human Person

“Restoration” of itself implies two things: an original order and a subsequent disorder.  Without providing too many statistics or meticulously interviewing many different people, I assert without fear that all would universally agree that we dwell in a state of disorder. That something isn’t quite right with the world. That things could be or should be better. That things are “messed up.”

​Over the past few months, our society has been troubled by so many different causes such as illness, economic struggles, unnecessary violence and destruction, political tension, etc., and needless to say how these have contributed to our struggles within our hearts as well.  For some, it may seem that a solution needs to be applied primarily at the social level.  But the answer is much deeper and, sadly, often downplayed
