"When you begin to think outside the box, you often become some other "leaders" lousy follower. That usually costs something" (Andy Rayner)

"Our guardian angels are bored." (Mike Foster)

It's where I feel I'm at these days. “In the second half of life, it is good just to be a part of the general dance. We do not have to stand out, make defining moves, or be better than anyone else on the dance floor. Life is more participatory than assertive, and there is no need for strong or further self-definition” (Falling Upward. Richard Rohr.120).

Side-Of-The-Head Church Fellowship... My FAVORITE Kind..

<blockquote>"Transformation into Christ’s image takes a life-time and beyond. And it doesn’t work very well outside of face-to-face community."
(Frank Viola) </blockquote>

Just what we all long for anyway- connection in community... and it's what helps us most. I've not met many running from the real deal.

The "face-to-face" part is key too. Most of us have tried the "side-of-the head", and the, "back-of-the-head" kind of community and confessed a group is not necessarily community and no longer need to fake or pretend it is when it is not.

Find some people to walk with face-to-face for your good, and theirs.
