Treeline Church
Speaker: Andrew Hager

Summary
Humanity is created for authentic community, reflecting God's trinitarian nature. Sin destroyed our ability to be fully known and unashamed, but Jesus's work on the cross restores the safety needed for vulnerable relationships—particularly through confession within healthy Christian community.
Highlights
The freest people in the world are those who don't have anything to hide.
You are forgiven when you go to God, but you can be healed when you let other people in on it too.
Jesus gave up safety and community so we could have both.
