Ever feel worn out by the world’s rough edges? 

In 1929, the poet Langston Hughes once achingly wrote,

I’m so tired of waiting, 
aren’t you,
for the world to become good
and beautiful and kind. 

That line could’ve been written yesterday.

This Sunday, we’re listening to Jesus speak right into that ache: “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.”

We’ll explore how that holy hunger is actually a gift—and how Jesus’ call, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is drawing near,” is the door into the satisfaction we long for.

What to expect:

• A hopeful look at why your longing for things to be made right isn’t meaningless or wasted

• How that longing will be satisfied in the coming Kingdom of God Jesus spoke about

• How we can lean into this hope for the new heavens and new earth--the home of righteousness (2 Peter 3:13) 

Bring a friend who’s discouraged by the headlines or just tired of waiting for “better.”

There’s real hope to be found in Jesus.

See you Sunday at 11 a.m. at Rivergate (5422 Cole Lane, College Station). Here’s the link to the Digital Worship Guide.

Grace and peace,

Pastor John
