Good News for the Bored

What's wrong with being bored? A lot, actually. Boredom can be a symptom of a disoriented heart. Many addictions begin with boredom. The end of many marriages begins with boredom. Lots of other struggles and sins are downstream of a persistent, pervasive posture of boredom. Here's the good news: we serve a God who not only saves us through Jesus, but through Jesus, by the Spirit, empowers us for mission. In Luke 9:1-9, we see a preview of this, and we'll also reflect on five ways the mission of Jesus can dispel boredom from your life and point the way to a fresh, challenging, mission-focused life. That is really good news for the bored.
