When our computers get bogged down and unmanageable, we know to hit a reset button to simply start over. Wouldn’t a reset button be great in life? We know it would be complicated, with all our responsibilities and routines to consider, but imagine the freedom and refreshment of a new start in life! What would you do differently? What would you pay more attention to, and what would you ignore? How would you avoid getting bogged down and broken again?
The great news is, in coming to earth as Jesus Christ, God has begun to “reset” our universe, our world, and even us. We’re invited to start over with him, in what he calls his kingdom. We’re invited to start a new life with a clean slate.
What gets wiped clean, and lived differently, when God resets our lives? We’ll explore how God resets these key areas of our lives:
Reset: Goals
Reset: Time
Reset: Money
Reset: Work
Reset: Body & Food
Reset: Sex & Marriage
Reset: Family
Reset: Compassion
Reset: Nature
Reset: Society
Reset: Death
Follow our daily challenges Monday to Friday for the next several weeks, and invite God to reset your life. It all starts Monday, January 13th below and in our app and social media channels.

We are in a new series called, “The Night that Changed Everything.” We’re looking at the significance of Christmas, a night that changed much more than most of us imagine. We’ll see its impact on five segments of society:
The Night That Changed the Religious
The Night That Changed the Powerful
The Night That Changed the Poor
The Night That Changed You
The Night That Changed the Wise
Four of the five happened long ago, with categories of people who look different today – our wise aren’t Magi, our poor aren’t always shepherds, and our powerful are seldom kings.
Today, we’re looking at how it changes us today, not just those long ago. We’re looking at how it changes me, and you.
How can the birth of a baby 2000 years ago impact people today?
Whatever the reason or mechanism, we can simply note that it has. We still date years with AD/BC – a dating system intended to be based on Christ’s life. In popular culture, we see much discussion of Jesus, with new books, blogs and films created regularly. People still quote Jesus to prove their points.
And of course, many people like myself will tell you Jesus is alive and well in their lives today.
Question: What impact do you see Jesus having in the world today?
