I am currently still writing about how my ministry and spirituality has grown... and i really do not enjoy writing things down... if only i could do a ten min presentation on it... still its almost finished...
but i couldnt continue without sharing this...
“We are the community of the Creator, so we must create. We are the community that looks forward to the city where divine and humanity will live side by side, so we must give birth to en emergent, conjunctive, self-renewing, adaptable Church that can model this inclusivity, generosity, creativity and flexibility, welcoming the Other, providing true space for pain, and real time for carnival.”
From The Complex Christ by Kester Brewin
i have reflected a lot on being Church lately, mainly part of this essay and my journey to working out where God wants me... but i know this much- the Church IS Christ's bride, we are the UNITED body of Jesus.
This quote challenges me to think...
It should challenge us all to think...
How much does church emcompass Christ?
How much of christ do we show?
How much difference to we make?
How much does it show in this our world at the moment?
How much do we look forward to the city where divine and humanity live side by side?
How much do we embody the birth, life, death and ressurection of Christ Jesus?
