Church – it’s a loaded term.

The damages that religion has done – the mistakes that humans make – the mistrust because of what’s been done in God’s name.

Church – it’s a loaded term.

The beauty, the explosive creative, the joy despite all else, the love, the community, the truth, the God of the people and for the people – not the pious deity

Church is explosive

it is gorgeous

it is wonderful

joyful

we are the church, the gathered community, the dancing people,

the souls release

we are the church

it is multicultural, international, varied and different

it is a celebration

a beautiful creation

a souls symphony

church – it is the ‘denomination and the non-denom’

the family

it’s going to Africa and worshipping the God you met in Bradford.

Or it was for me.
