If you answered “yes” to either question, The Greatest Invitation is for you. Jesus extends to all humanity—regardless of our situation, conditions, or beliefs—an Invitation to give our weariness and burdens to him. This invitation in Matthew 11:28–30 is straightforward, broad, and deep: Come to me, all that are weary and carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. This Invitation is offered to every human being. Whether you are Christian, Jewish, Muslim, the adherent of some other religion, agnostic, or atheist, it does not matter. There is no expiration date or limited service area. This handbook for hope presents a practical four-step model for accepting this Invitation; offers real-life stories of people who have been transformed by it; and highlights the gifts that you can receive. Here is your opportunity to experience release from your weariness and burdens and to live into rest, joy, and love. You can develop relationships that are richer and deeper. You can develop the virtues that enable your humanity to shine. You can grow toward becoming the person you desire to be.
