In reference to the church, I heard a great quote last night:
"It's not WHAT WE DO together, but WHO WE ARE together." - Mark DeHoog
Any thoughts??

Mark ripped that off from me! Oh well, I guess it's all Kingdom property... until I write my book, then "CHA-CHING!!!"
Or maybe "why we do and are together"
wow.. and jer stole that from me.

It's a cool thought. Who we are influences what we do though..oo could go really deep with this one
I think in the past the church has been more caught up in the "doing" of church rather then the "being" of church. I think once we come to understand who we are as the church, we'll be doing the right things naturally. (ie. taking care of the poor, loving each other, wanting to give of ourselves and not just consume).
Instead we've often started with the "list" of things we should be doing, or not doing, and that limits the possibilites of what the church is capable of accomplishing.
Doing just isn't soing it for me any more. I want to be the church. It sounds so cocky but I am the church.
