un-Church - 1

Way of Christ Community exists
to practice learning and living
in the outrageous, radical
and out-of-the-ordinary loveall humans receive from Godd

I said that this blog was in some way about 'unchurch.' I want to make good on that comment and perspective. The community whose link is off to the right here is one in development. It's learning what the One whom it worships is inviting it to be and do. I am quoting my spouse to recount that: rather than growing an institution, rather than inviting people who are not part of our thing to come to our thing, rather than beginning with an 8:45, or 10am Sunday morning worship event that speaks one language, rather than these - Way of Christ Community exists to practice learning and living in the outrageous, radical and out-of-the-ordinary love all humans receive from God. Strangely enough, that means we may not ever be a "church" to some people. The idea (un-church-ness) is that somebody who sees this outrageous, radical, out-of-the-ordinary love might see it being lived out.

Outside (expectations for) a big organization and a big building might be a place for many more people to see that love. So... that's unchurch for now. The idea is that you can come to the worship events this community celebrates, but you don't need to see Godd's love.
