Intro

Figuring out what God is saying to us is both a personal and a community effort.   There are dangers and strengths in how we work at each.  We need to be open to God's direction to us personally, but careful it is not our own hopes and biases that take the lead.  We need to be open to community discernment, but careful we don't seek compromise to the point it is the lowest common denominator.  This blog is one way of working at both.  It's a space where we can share with each other, respond to each other, and talk about things
 
Sounds like fun, but to prevent it from going 'sideways', some basic rules for entries.  Keep them respectful.  Agreeing or disagreeing is fine.  Dis-respecting others is not.  Some of the entries will come from Jesus followers.  If you are pray about what you write.  Some of the entries will come from those who have questions about Jesus.  Ask your questions.  Some of the entries will come from those who have made the choice to follow something else that Jesus.  We want to hear from you.  Right up front, know I will disagree with you and will do my best to point you to Jesus, so you know where I am coming from already. 
 
Confidentiality will be respected, and we will monitor to make sure entries don't cross the line.  Looking forward to hearing from you.
