The frustration that I have been confronted with is exactly what this blog is addressing. I have been attending a UCC church, and I find that the only thing the congregation offers me is a social club full of question marks. It's a very nice social club, I admit. I like the people, I like the pastor. But it's not spiritually thrilling, to put it mildly. I'm going to continue my search for a congregation that means something, but I'm afraid of not finding the answer.

We are afraid to upset folks, to cause a stir, to lead - yet that is what we are called to do if we are following Jesus Christ. Jesus did all of these things fully and without timidity. What would happen if we did just that? Transformation! Engagement! Relevance! Life giving relationships! Thanks Daniel!
