Neighborhoods
Posted by justicetabernacle on June 11, 2009
i’m really excited about the recalibration of my thinking these days as we gear up for the ncc summer semester of small groups. we are doing a church-wide curriculum (a departure from our normal free market style) this summer focused on neighborhoods- and serving them.
as i wrap my mind around how this is going to play out- i am forced to reflect on how far we have come as a church in this arena. not only in physical action, but in mindset and purpose.
but things like serving the poor, evangelism, and community building really entail deep theological reflection to accompany the obedient action. it is interesting to try and wrap your mind around phrases like ‘blessed are the poor.’
