Pastor's Blog

Anyone who has read my blog or attended our church for any length of time knows that one of my big pet peeves is radical individualism. God created us as dependent creatures, to live any other way is to rebel against God's design. God himself exists in a state of radical community, something we call the Trinity. He has called His people to be a radical community, special people that live differently than the world around us. The church MUST become a transformed community living a true alternative lifestyle as the Body of Christ or it isn't really the church at all and will never have the impact on the world that God intends. Dan Edelen began a series yesterday on being the Body of Christ and continues it today with a great post on forging real community. As I've mentioned before, Mark Roberts is also blogging on the meaning of "church". I highly recommend keeping an eye on both of these series.
