Had the privilege of getting together the other night with 12 others (all from other denoms and a few who have no current congregation affiliation) in a narrative of unity (since you're in Christ and since 'm in Christ, then we are one in unity, regardless of denom/doctrine).
There was much dialog on "we don't go to church, we ARE the Church" and our call to encourage and build one another up, to see Ephesians 4:13 become a reality in our area.
I knew we had come into a significant thing when I heard several of my favorite words:
Journey, Story, Paradigm-Shift . . . and talk that generally pointed to transition.
Definitely got some major "winks" from Papa God in our time there. While still in a "Dusk/Dawn" scenario (see Martin Scott's blog on "Transitions") Adele & I got another piece of the puzzle that night that has us giddy with excitement combined with an "Ah-Ha!' moment and a greater Shalom.
The group is headed-up by Emil & Michele Swift, who are River Pastors and connected with Bethel Redding/Global Legacy. This was our first time there, but we look forward in partnering as much as we can. With just this first visit, Adele & I saw a lot of resonance with the other Reformation/Kingdom/Mission endeavors happening around the world.
Exciting Times!
