Looking Back<\/b><\/h1>

Our last conversation covered the incredible purpose God had in mind when he created humans.<\/span><\/p>

Then we saw how our sin\u2014our failure to trust and love God\u2014has got in the way of that.<\/span><\/p>

We discussed how everyone is sinful and naturally cut off from God, how society and nature suffer from our corruption, and why we’ll never reconnect with God through our own efforts.<\/span><\/p>
