the years of wondering... searching, questioning, writing, dialoguing, reading... riddled with anticipation, often times ending in frustration with more questions than i begin with and i am beginning to taste it... see glimpses of it... smell its aroma and fragrance in the present.
i am beginning to experience LIFE.
not just a pulse... not just the beat of yet another heart beat... not just the rising of the sun on another morning... but real life... really life!
real, authentic community finding its identity in the gospel.
becoming who we were meant to be... being restored back to our original intent... the CHURCH beginning to understand our role in the story... returning to the gospel and creating a culture a texture that community can naturally emerge.
gone are the days of quick fixes, microwave christianity is DEAD! the day for followers of jesus becoming disciples is upon us. the days of propositional, lifeless, self help teaching are gone.
today we rise as a community with our identity found in the gospel... this LIFE is possible!
