The Journey Begins

Tuesday, August 21, 2007

Welcome. It's with humility, fear, excitment, gratitude, and a myriad of other emotions that I begin this journey with you. It has been a dream of mine to start a new "experience" that is totally different than anything currently being offered in Atlanta. It's a place where people with doubts, questions, and maybe even some healthy skepticism can come and hear excellent music (no hymns and no contemporary "praise" music....this is professional jazz and acoustic music that folks usually pay to hear), have a great cup of coffee or tea, a bite to eat, and engage in some thoughts about theology. No pressure. No judgments. I envision a place where you can take care of your body too, and meet other people who don't "do church". Maybe a place where we look at contemporary film and literature with the lens of theology. I want a community that is socially and environmentally responsible - and a place where we can do some work with local charities.

I know some of you are involved in church already, and I know some of you would rather not set foot in a church ever, but I also believe that most of you have a real interest in spirituality and in some way are "seeking God" and I would really like to hear your thoughts about this new idea.

For reasons I can't explain, I've actually been given the opportunity to start this new community here in metro Atlanta. I'll keep you up to date on progress as there is something to report. Truthfully, there is a lot of work going on behind-the-scenes right now, and some great events scheduled for this fall, so keep checking back.

Hang onto your seats. This promises to be an interesting and eventful ride!
