In Community

Re Ordinary Radical, July/August

I follow with interest Amy MacLachlan’s articles on renewal. But Amy, are you doing this with any others? Don’t you know that only in and among others, in real community, can you find the strength and vision needed to really change? Jesus needed a community. He left a community, not a belief. The main reason we are failing as a church, as are most others, is that we offer mere belief and no community as Jesus knew it. We deserve our fate. Our pitiful attempts at renewal are doomed if community is not first found.
