Series: Essentials
May 29, 2022 | Paul Joslin
What must Waterstone become, in order to be a church that embodies the kingdom of God and gives hope to those both outside and inside the church? Can we see renewal and restoration take place, not wounding and heartbreak? The things we believe Christ is calling his church to are hard things. They aren’t easy and not for the faint of heart.

We can be arrogant where we should be humble, judgmental where we should be forgiving, hateful where we should be loving, self-concerned where we should be altruistic, and, not least, spiteful and vicious where we should be understanding and merciful. Our lives and churches don’t radiate Jesus.” Ronald Rolheiser, Wrestling With God
