![Can Christianity heal division? [Who am I? pt 2 / 4]](https://www.yourcrosscreek.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/coverpt2-1080x675.jpg)
We spend so much time and energy deciding who is “in” and who is “out.” And remarkably, our group always seems to be the group that is “in.” But Jesus brought something better… something more… something that outshines every distinction we use to divide ourselves… he brought a better way to be human.

Does a relationship with Jesus change and grow as we do the same? How does our faith mature and transform as we ask more questions and explore? We thought Monica and Aaron Fiedler would be some really good people to talk to about this whole idea, for two reasons. First, real stories might help those of you exploring what following Jesus might mean for you. Secondly, we hope to encourage those of you who already follow Jesus frame your own experiences in order to grow and share with others.
You believe what you believe because you know it’s right, right? But how do you know? We often just assume our beliefs are correct without actually evaluating why we believe them. Maybe it’s time to start asking some bigger questions of our beliefs.
We say we are tired of all of the division around us… but we keep dividing ourselves from each other. Division just seems to be part of our human nature. But Christmas promises peace on earth. Are unity and peace actually possible or is it simply some sentimental longing? The answer is simpler and more powerful than we imagine.
Christmas reminds us that life can be more. There are more than the usual routines we find ourselves mindlessly repeating. In fact, Christmas actually points the way to experiencing the life we long for… the life Jesus offers to everyone.
