Putting His Brilliance on Display

I love the line from the Value Statement of Expressions 58 Church.

“E58 exists to be a city on a hill that beholds Jesus and puts his brilliance on display.”

This “city” feasts their eyes on Jesus, they uphold him and put him first for all to see. To do this as Christians, we must humbly depend on him so his brilliance can be seen. We must be transparent so he can be seen. This world needs to see real, authentic humans that aren’t perfect. Our strengths and talents as well as our hurts, pains, and needs allow the fullness of his brilliance to be put on display.

It is inspiring to me that Jesus doesn’t need us for his brilliance to shine, he already has it. Yet, it is our privilege and honor to be the city that displays his glory.
