An Unexpected Lenten Feast.
Go read it. Really. All the way through. Read it deeply, soak it into your heart.
Everything about Steph's words make me want to be living a life so completely poured out that I can't fully put it into words.
I miss being in a church that at the very least, did a mixture of the classic, the old if you will, music with the new. New music isn't bad, just like new translations of the Bible aren't bad. They help more people begin thier journeys and stay in relationship with God easier, but being in relationship with God isn't always easy.
I miss being in a church that at the very least recognized that Lent or Advent were happening. It's a strange sensation to walk into church and have it suddenly be Easter or Christmas. I know, we're seeker friendly, I get that, but being seeker friendly shouldn't ignore the facts and pivitol points of following Christianity.
My thoughts there are complicated, but my feelings are clear, at least to me. I know what I like. I know what I miss. I know what moves me.
Steph's words moved me. Go read it. See if it moves you.
