Sometimes changing the world can come from giving of your time, talents and resources to those in need. Better than politics!

This afternoon I showed my new pastor around church. I also showed other folks around who will be shaping the future of the church, people I didn’t know. The whole process was strange and I felt like a real estate agent showing a property to a prospective buyer. For ten years I have been a member of my church and much has happened in the time I have been there, recently we were looking at closing but somehow now there will be another congregation not even in our city taking control. I am conflicted in my feelings about the situation. The next weeks and months will be interesting as the new direction of the church is taking shape. Somehow I felt like I was selling something, I am used to that but my church building was something new, something weird, something unexpected.
