Peace and (New) Hope come together in Jesus
To me, unity among people is one of the most beautiful aspects of a positive, encouraging faith community.
when the church models leadership in unity – rather than one more sad example of factionalism
What an idea! That churches become leaders in reconciliation, rather than standing as more sad evidence of the brokenness that is destroying this world....

Holy Hay Day, and creating a “Kingdom Culture”

I’ve been playing with the idea fitting two images side-by-side in order to get the entire span of Wake Forest Presbyterian Church in one frame.
