Renovare July 2007 newsletter.

The July 2007 issue of the RENOVARÉ Perspective is now available at www.renovare.org.

In this edition, Richard J. Foster addresses "Spiritual Formation and the Local Congregation," noting that institutional maintenance as a primary concern needs to be avoided and the development of a kingdom heart should be primary for spiritual fromation efforts to bear fruit....

People are knotted.....

This tree is near Golspie and it has an interesting root system. All knotted.

When I read blogs about the Church, Emergent, Emerging Church, baptists, theology, reformed, Charismatic etc I see knotted people.

Now I dont mean" get knotted!"( British derogatory remark)

I mean the roots of the past help to support. Be it twisted or not. Think...If you untwisted the roots of this tree...If you straightened them out if you made them tidy. The tree woiuld fall down its perched on the bank. The root system helps to give the stability.

People need to know you are what you ARE (present tense) - roots of your life digging deep and supporting you. So stand good with the roots you have and reach to the sky heavenward!
Its about "being".

The now is about growing upward to the heavenly place. What are you doing to accomodate the growth? Do not ignore the past it supports you but in the now, live for God and the future will be nurished.

Emergent church Renovare...
