The Sign

by Shawn Boonstra

Life has become very noisy in the 21st century. If you go camping, somebody with a stereo system will move in next to you. Go for a hike in the woods, and you can hear the sounds of chainsaws or fourwheelers in the distance. Walk on the beach, and you can still hear airplanes passing overhead. There's no escaping the noise.

We have come to think of relentless activity as noble. Even though we secretly resent working every spare minute of every day, we actually feel guilty if we spend time doing nothing in particular.

I'm not an advocate of conspiracy theories, but  I have long suspected that the noise and pace of modern life is deliberate.  Somebody is trying to keep us incessantly occupied, because if we stopped the endless cycle of activity for even a few moments, we would discover something amazing: the presence of God.

In The Sign by Pastor Shawn Boonstra, you will learn about God's sign of love and loyalty, and His plan to give you rest amidst the noisy, hectic world around us.
