Why we are the way we are

US News & World Report just published this article about a growing movement in American spirituality. It's about how many American Christians are looking to return to some of the traditions of the faith as a way to ground their experience and find authenticity.

The reason I post this article is because it describes pretty well what we are trying to be and why. A community rooted in the traditions of our faith, but one that reimagines them for today. One that is grounded in orthodoxy, but lives it out in ways that are relevant for today. This article will help you understand a little bit of why we do things the way we do, and what we are hoping to accomplish by doing them that way. Check it out.

Merry Christmas! Celebrate! Don't drown in the responsibilities and activities. Remember it's a birthday party. Listen to your kids laughter and awe and excitement. It is contagious. See their joy. Imagine if the joy we feel as leaders during this holiest of seasons was visible to all we encountered. I'm afraid that very often my stress and tiredness was more visible then my joy. So, Joy to the World, to all the boys and girls and that means you, my brother. Peace, Chuck, Out!
