Mark 3.20-35
The church is where God assembles us to imagine and day dream about how beautiful the world could be.
It’s wild stuff really. It always has been. That people like me can stand up in a place like this and say “Welcome home.” Or: “I declare the entire forgiveness of all your sins.” Or: “You are loved beyond measure.” I sound like I’m out of my mind!
But such is the power of God’s grace, it calls into existence things that do not exist, it creates a community where strangers become sisters and others become brothers, a family, where there is always a place for you no matter what.
It sounds impossible - but God does God’s best work in the realm of impossible possibility.
