What holds us together when life feels divided, overwhelming, and uncertain?  In the final message of our *Summer Reading* series, Pastor Rachel Keeler explores 2 Corinthians 5:17–21 and the life-changing promise that anyone who is in Christ is a new creation. Through Jesus, we are reconciled to God, given a fresh start, and invited to become ambassadors of reconciliation in a fractured world.  Drawing from the film *Everything Everywhere All at Once*, Pastor Rachel reflects on our longing for someone who understands everything we see and feel—someone who can bring meaning, unity, and healing to every part of life. Scripture points us to Jesus, the one through whom all things were created and in whom all things hold together.  As we grow closer to Christ, his life transforms us. We become people who carry the peace, love, and healing of God’s coming new creation into our relationships, workplaces, neighborhoods, and communities.
