I've been reading a great book written by one of the guys from the simple way. It really relates to something James and I have been working towards this year; to build community.
The author guy Shane calls for (and lives) within a diverse community. They eat with the poor. They sleep with the homeless. They play with the children. They live in community; a glowing example to our (or should that be my) individualistic and suburban mindset.
I want to be community. But I can't do it by myself. It will mean putting others first. It will be painful. But it will be a step towards Jesus's radical redefinition of society. I can't wait.
