Speakers: Vince Klassen

Life moves fast—and not always for the wrong reasons. Kids’ sports ramp up. A work project lands unexpectedly. School deadlines pile on. Before we know it, we’re running on empty.

If we’re honest, we can’t keep up this pace. But what if the way out isn’t just better time management—what if it’s a better lens?

This week, we explore the humanity of Jesus through the Historical Jesus lens. We often read his teachings as urging constant self-sacrifice, always giving more. One gospel even uses the word “immediately” over and over—making it sound like Jesus lived at a breakneck speed.

But what if we’ve misunderstood? What if some of the teachings we thought were sacred… were actually the ones pushing us toward burnout?

Join us this week as we slow down, take a fresh look at Jesus, and discover a saner rhythm for life.
