My Thoughts Of What The Church Should Be


The Church

The church [ecclesia] is a group of people 
   graciously called by God the Father
into right relationship(s),through Jesus Christ 
   living as a dynamic "incarnational" [Christ in 
   our flesh] presence within the world, 
rooted in and emanating out of 
  an authentic and transparent community 
   [koinonia], 
dedicated to reconciling and restoring all things 
  over to the image and purpose of Jesus Christ…
  • Illuminated by the Holy Spirit
  • Instructed by the Scriptures
  • Informed by Church tradition

TIME


To fully live, is to live fully in the moment...
Life is so incredibly fleeting otherwise...

It would seem wise to intentionally commit
to a heightened awareness....


To live fully in the moment, means to willingly step
into the heat of the crucible,


From which is formed the linchpin that fuses
our past and future together.


To fully live acts, as a hinge, that regularly opens or closes
a myriad of opportunities.
