I serve a God who has called “a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages” (Rev 7:9) to partake as sons and heirs in his kingdom (Gal 4:7). I serve a God whose love for us transcends lines of gender, class, and ethnicity and who allows our horizontal love to do the same (Gal 3:28). I serve a God who put chestnuts, chocolate, caramel, butterscotch, and pecans all under the same roof just because he’s creative like that.
