When was the last time you said "I promise"? You may be thinking about something you said to your kids, or to your spouse, or maybe you said it to yourself as you resolved to get up earlier to exercise. Promises are simply commitments we make in our lives…or at least they are supposed to be. That is, until they are broken. When they are broken, promises become stains in our relationships and fuel for our distrust. Broken promises are betrayal. This series of Transformation is about Promises. It's not about your promises, because, in one way or another we all have broken ones buried in the backyard of our lives (Rom 3:20). Instead, it is about God's Promises because God's Promises have the Power to Transform our brokenness into something brand new (2 Cor. 5:17). Yes, God is the Promise keeper, and it is this very reason that we can completely trust every promise he has made to us (Mark 10:27). The Bible chronicles God's promises and I challenge you to fact check Him. Your pursuit will show a Promise Keeper who created us, who cares for us, who died to save us!
