Eastside: Story - part 4 of 11
The world is thirsty for communities who embody their deep value of their historic by actively working to foster deep rootedness in their own tradition of knowing God. Simultaneously, the world is seeking communities of great depth who in knowing their tradition's teachings, liturgies, and history - don't attempt to white-wash or blindly sacralize it - but through understanding are empowered to contextually embrace that which still speaks and is life-giving - while also growing out of those parts of their tradition that were clearly the byproducts of ancient, human societal norms - not God's divine revelation.
