Do you remember the original Super Mario Brothers games? If so, you have good and bad memories of the infamous reset button on the Nintedo console! If you were making progress on a new level and your little sister hit the reset button out of meanness, you discovered the horrors of starting over. On the other hand, if you were about to watch Mario plummet to his demise in a pit of lava, you could hit the reset button yourself and avoid watching your hero's death. You discovered the joy of starting over.
"Reset" is JLM's look at this starting over process. We're currently resetting ministries and the people who fill those roles. We're reexamining our level of excitement and passion for the things we've been involved in. Not as excited as you used to be? Hit reset. Have another direction you'd like to go in life and ministry? Hit reset.
The reset button can be dreadful or exciting. We're choosing to change in a positive way and see the opportunity for a new life as an exciting event in our lives! God's reset button? "If any man be in Christ he is a new creature, old things are passed away, behold all things are become new." (2 Corinthians 5:17)
