Fiona

A great read and a book that is putting words to some of my thoughts and feelings, is "Tangible Kingdom" by Hugh Halter and Matt Smay. The church is the bride of Christ, and sometimes the bride can look like Fiona from Shrek, but God still loves his bride, and wants to work in and through it. I need to be reminded of that, and certainly as New Hope revisits its call in this community and reflects both on the past year, as well as some inevitable shifts in the future, we will need to be reminded of that.
