'God is doing something different. God isn't
just concerned with the popular and the
powerful, the rich and the important, God
cares about the weird and odd people, the
smelly ones, and the ones no one else trusts.
Not only that: God has a really special mission for them.'

Right from the start of his time on Earth - Jesus chose to hang out with and work with the most unlikely people. As word spread about his amazing choices and teaching, the invitation was offered: Come and See.

So forget what you think you already know and take up the invitation for yourself - to come and see this Jesus.
Grounded in scholarly understandings of Scripture, and opened up in a way that makes sense today, Come and See tackles questions of fairness, justice, inclusion, friendship, doing the right thing, and care for community.

Journey with Shannon T. L. Kearns in 40 different encounters in the Bible. There are reflections, journaling and action prompts that root the Bible teaching into real life - so 'Come and See' how Jesus' message is just as revolutionary, exciting and relevant today.
