Amid all the changes we face in the church, a lot is going right, and we need to strengthen all the good things that remain by celebrating them as frequently as we can. Churches that claim to have a transformational faith and a God who is truly good should be happy places.
I fear that Christians have somewhat gained a reputation for furrowed brows, wagging fingers and selfish rhetoric. I would rather earn a reputation for having joyful sanity and serenity, good clean non-mean-spirited fun, and quiet confidence in God that makes us smile at the future.
How can we learn to love more by believing the best more - to test all things and yet hold fast to what is good - to drain the bath water but hold on to the baby?
I don't know.
And be blessed.
