Can't believe it's Thursday evening already. Been meaning to post some reflections on our 2nd Vision Meeting for CrossPointe Winter Park...just been busy. Anyway, it was another great night, not because of any great word or preparation on my part, but because Jesus was serious when he said I will build my church. God brought people. He has generated interest. He is doing this for His glory. We just get to be along for the ride. We are extremely grateful to all who have participated in the past 2 vision meetings, and we look forward with great anticipation to the 3rd installment on August 24! Mark your calendars. This will be the best one yet.
Below is video footage from the meeting, with the emphasis being on COMMUNITY. The video should serve to give you a good idea of our approach to cultivating community and how we can live it out. How do we work towards community when so much of the world we inhabit encourages individualism, isolation and consumerism? What would it be like to be the church and not just go to church. How do groups stay missional and not turn in on themselves? How is the GOSPEL the only means by which true community can be fostered? These were some of the topics we discussed and addressed, knowing full well that it's one thing to talk about it and another thing to live it out. Through the gospel, we are a people trying to live this out. Peace.
