Christ is the Way, the Truth and the Life. This teaching is not new. Jesus is our redeemer. His sacrifice on the cross saves us from eternal death.
Many people live day to day without a purpose.
They drift aimlessly on the high tide of materialism and pleasure. They are content to enjoy the blessings of our strong economy. They are easily satisfied with fleeting amusement, but are soon disappointed and disillusioned. They yearn for true happiness, but so often set their hearts on false gods. As we heard in our reading from Exodus, God established a covenant with the Israelites as they wandered through the desert.
