Neighborhood meeting

Neighborhood meeting

Small town America at work. I'm sitting in the cafeteria of our local elementary school for a "conversation" about building plans. Crazy how heated these things get. Kind of brings out the worst at times. Kind of fun though.



Updated observation :: The presenters underestimated the passion of people for our neighborhood. It was clear that people picked the neighborhood far more than the actual house when they chose to move in. This will be incredibly important for me to keep in mind as we try and contextualize the Gospel in our area. Last night helped solidify in my mind the values of our community. These things have to be on the forefront of my mind and those who will join this mission.
