How do we incarnate the body of Christ in this new frontier, this increasing wilderness? What do the roots of Christianity, of the apostles first forays into the world have to say for the church today? These are the questions that drive me. How are we to be the church in a culture that has forgotten the ways of Christ?

The call of the church today is to abandon its fortresses and to become nomads, following the breath of God as he fills the world with life; to pursue the shadow of an unrelenting and unceasing God that is passionately reclaiming what is his. I want to understand how he spoke through his first apostles as he called together and formed the body of believers in the upper room with his holy fire. I want to inhabit the words and minds of the ancient theologians and mystics that sought God above all else. Through all of this though I want to gain an understanding on how to inspire, lead, and bring others along on the narrow path, to one day see the new heavens and the new earth in all their glory, and to see the face of my savior and embrace his feet in awe.

This journey is both intimately personal, and at the same time impossible without being in community with other believers and unbelievers alike. For truly as the gospel states we all have sinned, and fallen short of God’s glory, but praise be the cross is sufficient for all who embrace it’s story.
