Why We Are Here



 I’m glad to see that you have made it here. Wandering through the dark, winding paths that exist throughout our world can easily lead a passerby astray. These paths encourage us to meander off the narrow, dimly lit road that we have been inspired to follow and called to pursue. The path we were made for. The weather is cold, dark and gray and the path from this point onward does not become any less treacherous. The woods that surround the paths are full of mysteries. Things that are dark and not well understood. You know this, for you are living through it.

But that is enough about where you have been. You are most likely wondering about where you have now come.  

This is a gathering place. 

A place of light and warmth. A place where faithful servants tend the campfires of truth, love and grace in a world which desperately needs it. Here you will find encouragement for the rest of your journey. By his grace may we provide tinder, a few logs, or maybe even a flame for you to carry, that you may move on from this place and go back into the wilderness to tend to a campfire of your own. Be encouraged brother, sister, for we move forward as one to fulfill lives of obedience to the creator who gives us hope.
