The real church, as we see it, is one in which its members lives are being continually transformed by the gospel.  It sounds obvious, but as the following examples show, genuine Christian faith takes time to settle into people’s character. 

 Many of us struggle with the thought of bringing our non-Christian friends to church. We fear they would be uncomfortable with the ‘Christian culture’ they would encounter.  Perhaps we are less than confident that church would answer the questions they are asking.

Living in a small Middle Eastern city we’ve had to re-think ‘church’. What does ‘church’ look like in this culture? We don’t have it fully worked out. But I hope that how ‘church’ looks continues to change, to become more relevant and accessible to the people here.
