Christianity has not been tried and found wanting;
it has been found difficult and left untried.

I say this in love.. i hope its taken as such

community is what you make it. i dont come to the point to find community for myself, but so that others can find it. I don't meet new people every week for myself, but so that they feel welcome. I dont put myself in uncomfortable positions with people i dont know so that i can say i met someone, but because God has called me to stand in the gap between Him and his people. Like kevin Meyers always says "How are you doing, church family"? Not to be mean or bash you, God knows i love the point and every person there. If someone wants community and isn't finding it, i would have to ask how hard are you looking? How many people did you meet last week? How many hands did you shake? How many numbers did you get, and how many lunch dates did you set up? How many people did you promise that you would pray for them? How many of those did you actually pray for? Thats community. And its not about me, but its about God. Its about how i can serve Him, by serving his people. "What you do unto the least of these you are doing unto me". If everyone did that, we wouldn't use the word comunity, we would use the word famliy. Praise God.

Too many people blame the church due to the people in it failing to realize they are just humans like they are... The next step to getting over that is to step up to the plate and make things happen...
