Boxing Up God and Faith

You can't box God up in religion. You can't box Jesus up in Christianity. You can't box church up in a building. You can't box faith up in a set of beliefs. You can't box grace up in conditions.

The True Nature of the Kingdom of God

The Kingdom of God isn't boxed up in our churches. Imagine church without pulpits or pews, creeds or confessionals—no membership, plate-passing, pledges, vestments, heavenly choirs, or altar calls.

Without buildings to maintain or staff to sustain, the church no longer is seen as a private club or guilt-trip haven to heaven. Instead, its focus is on caring and sharing, living here-and-now, not in the hereafter.

The Church's Role and Transformation

Rather than part of our worldly empires, the church has become their antithesis. From guts to glory, the church begets reform.
