Jesus is the Son of God, fully God and fully man, who came to rescue us from sin. To me, He’s not just someone I’ve read about or heard stories of; He’s real and personal. He’s the reason I have hope, peace, and direction in life. I’ve chosen to follow Him as my Savior because I know I can’t save myself. Since that day, I’ve been learning to grow in my faith by reading His Word, praying, and staying connected with other believers. One of the ways I serve is by leading our middle school ministry, helping students see that Jesus wants a real relationship with them too. I’m far from perfect, but I’m grateful that Jesus keeps shaping me into who He’s called me to be. Knowing Him has truly changed everything for me.
