The church should be about the business of changing the future

Cool thought from Matt Cleaver,

"The church is the place where imagining a new future should be a perpetual practice, not just every four years. The church should be about the business of changing the future, not just preparing people for it. We participate in bringing about God’s kingdom on earth, changing old to new, and seeing life where there once was death."

I somehow missed this link when you posted it in January. Thanks for the link.

Now that I'm on your site, you seem to have a web-slant to your blog, which is ironic. I'm writing a multi-series post on how I helped our church go from paying $200 a year for a cumbersome, limited website to a self-hosted Wordpress driven site for free.
