Our Kids Church Program runs during term time and is
overseen by Graham and Linda Keen and a number of adult
teams. During the Family Service the kids (ages 4-12) head
downstairs for the Kids@Church Adventure Series.
Paul in 2 Corinthians 4 says we have this treasure in clay jars. This treasure is the gospel (vs. 3). If
a jar could contain light, say, the light of the gospel, and it was perfect, then that light would not be
seen, for it would have nowhere to shine through. If it is cracked, then there are places for that light
to leak out and shine forth.

For me, Scripture is liked a cracked jar, it is because it is cracked that light is able to shine forth. If
in our brokenness God shines Gods light in and through us, can we not also assert the same of the
prophets and the apostles? Can we not say that we are most like God, not when we are whole, but
when we are broken? Does not the Fourth Gospel (John) suggest as much in its view of the relation-
ship between glory (doxa) and the cross?

This is the good news, this is the gospel, and this is why we trust God to use our brokenness to
shine his light from our lives into the lives of others.
