Offer Hope

For God sent his Son into the world not to condemn the world, but so that through him the world might be saved.
Jn.3:17

Jesus is explaining to Nicodemus the purpose of his mission, not to condemn the world but to save it.

Before I was a believer I didn't need to be condemned, I already knew I was basically rotten. What I needed was hope, hope of being saved. If I am a true follower of God's Son, I should be continuing his mission of offering hope of salvation to the world. 

It's high time my parish ran another Alpha Course. It's not the only way to offer Jesus' message of hope but it's the best way I've come across so far. 

Saint Helena, please pray for me.
