We serve a God of the impossible situation. It's a good thing, too, because we're in an impossible situation. As individuals, we can do nothing to overcome for ourselves sin and death. God stepped in. He is the God of the resurrection. As a body, our little church is in an impossible situation. How are we going to grow. If we don't grow, we will die. But the motivation cannot be survival. It can only be love - love for God and for our neighborhood. We'll get together during the week this summer to talk with God and each other and ask for a mission to our neighbors.
