Every person is looking for something to tell them that their life is worth something. At the core of that desire is a Biblical truth: you matter, and your life has been designed to make a difference.
Make Room is a church-wide journey that invites us to align our lives with God’s heart and create space for Him to move. As we explore the biblical principle of honor, we believe that when we honor God and others through our words, actions, and relationships, we make room for God’s work to take deeper root in us and through us.
I grew up in a small farming community in the heart of the rural south. My father would often disappear for days or weeks at a time. Then one day, he left and never returned. For years as a child, I was the victim of sexual abuse at the hands of an extended family member. As a teenager, I became an alcoholic to escape the pain. Abuse, abandonment, and addiction defined my life. Then in my late teen years, I gave my life to Jesus. His love and healing transformed me. After meeting Jesus, God’s grace not only dealt with my sin, but also began to heal the hurts of my past. This experience with grace forged in me a passion for broken people. Northplace Church’s vision to “invite the uninvited” and pursue “forgotten people in forgotten places” is strategic and intentional, born out of the experience with grace in my personal pain.
The Bible is not a collection of 66 random books full of odd stories. It’s not a compilation of inspirational quotes. It’s not a moral code. This book is the way God has chosen to reveal Himself to us.
As you read and engage every page with an understanding of the overarching storyline, God reveals more and more of himself to us. That’s
why we call the Bible “the unfolding revelation of God”.
And it all points to Jesus.
