I believe that we are the church, in the ways that we worship, love, and give praise. As a community, and as individuals throughout years, within days. With a roof over our heads and walls surrounding, or within the open air, creation abounding. I believe that the church is embodied within the proclamations that are preached. Within the prayers and the praises, sufferings and healings that are reached. I believe faith resides in the church. Most importantly, as people are tested by God, but also in the ways that Christ is searched. As love is spread and salvation proclaimed, grace given, as Christians are no longer ashamed. The church is upstanding, high on a hill. In every way, shape, and form, Christ has come to fill. Within every heart that is burdened, the gospel rings true. I know of the church, because the church is in you.
