Something Amazing

We are on the adventure of Abundant Life.

In 2008, some of us realised that while we were living, we weren’t experiencing the Abundant Life that Jesus spoke of. We soon discovered that Abundant Life would take humble honesty and authenticity with God and our primary relationships.

We had no idea how challenging such a journey would be. We thought it would be a slight adjustment; but we found out that honesty leads to an ever-deepening place for the need of the Holy Spirit’s cleansing and healing.

One of the things that we discovered early on was the importance of love. Involvement in church shouldn’t be about getting stuff done, it should be about loving God and loving each other; it’s about how to be.
Much of how our church was, in its structure, actually enabled people to keep from an honest look at themselves.

Question Church; but also question yourself

How self-aware am I?
Am I aware of how my participation in church helps me grow?
