We “Professionals” May Be Focusing on the Wrong Thing Entirely
Read what Todd Hunter has to say…
“But, the people I most admire and respect in life are not focused on �church� as a place, event or thing. They just quietly participate in non-descript churches and submit themselves to be used by God, to be ambassadors of his Kingdom in those communities of faith�as everywhere else in there their life: no dualisms. That attitude�whole life self-surrender�is rooted in a different kind of life: life from above, eternal life. It is what we must pursue for our selves and those we serve. It will make most models work.
But again this does not mean we abandon our pursuit of better models. It means that models are second; spiritual transformation is first, in community, for the sake of the world.”

No Wonder We Can’t Go Into “All the World“…
…when we can’t – or won’t – take the time to build relationships with our neighbors right next door! On the one hand, I’m glad to see this isn’t only an American problem. On the other hand, I’m extremely bothered that this could be – and is – my story almost exactly!

To Woodstock with Love!
Had my…and my church’s first experience with “servant evangelism” today. We distributed 1000 bottles of cold water in the Fourth of July parade in downtown Woodstock. We could have given out 2000 or more!
