Summer update #2! spent 5 weeks with Cru and IJM in Ghana this summer, sharing the love of Jesus with college students and love kids who have been rescued out of human trafficking. Here is what she had to say about her experience, “This summer God allowed me to see some of the deepest sin I have ever witnesses, but through that I was able to see His redemption that much clearer. I saw Him bring kids out of trafficking and into His kingdom, and now He is continuing to restore them spiritually, physically, and emotionally. God has a deep heart for justice and I long to see that spread throughout the world.” Thank you Jesus that you rescue people and bring hope in even the darkest places of our world!

Happy summer friends! We’ve been busy this summer spread out across the world, seeking to share the love of Jesus wherever God sent us! One of those places was in the Middle East getting to talk to students just like us about His love and desire for a relationship with us! This is a picture of our team who went together, 11 of who are our Maryville own! One of our students said this about how God used the trip in her life,
“I am always in awe of how carefully God has crafted my life & how he pulls me closer to him, often in ways I never would’ve imagined!! the Lord has truly allowed me to experience joy and healing in his plan for me, purely through trusting him and seeking refuge in Jesus each and every day”. Praise God for His faithfulness! We will share more updates of how God has moved this summer as the days go on!

[Psalm 121:1-2] The truth in this verse is astounding. We have access to an extremely powerful, able God. We are not alone, nor are we left to our own devices. Let that sink in a minute.

Joy is knowing that you are not alone. Joy is knowing that you are enough. Joy is knowing that your pain and struggles will end. Joy is knowing that you have everything that you need. Joy is knowing that you are loved. Joy is knowing Jesus.

What do these words mean to you? Perhaps they describe how you see the world. Your 2020-2021 experience. Your family. Your friendships. Your relationship with God.

Even still, Jesus came to earth to bridge the divide. To restore harmony. To heal brokenness. To bring peace.

“…and the government shall be upon His shoulder, and His name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.” - Isaiah 9:6

“I love Jesus because He loved me first. Before I even knew who Jesus was, He loved me. It wasn’t a half hearted love either; Jesus’ love is true & pure & perfect. Now all I can do is try to love Him, and others, like He loves me!” -

Hope far surpasses optimism. Hope is expecting that despite all the darkness we have all experienced, there will be light.

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness and the darkness has not overcome it. The true light, which gives light to everyone, was coming into the world. And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us.” - John 1

Jesus is hope. (Want more? Check out Revelation 21:3-5)

Okay, maybe this is not actually about weightlifting…but kinda. We carry a lot. We carry the people, the circumstances, the struggles, the pressures surrounding us. And it’s so heavy! So we become anxious, depressed, overwhelmed. But, what if we were to stop? What if we let it all go?

We have a good and able Father who wants to carry the load. Maybe we should let him. (Check out Philippians 4:6-7; Psalm 131:1-2)

What do you need to let go of? Let us know in the comments below.
