Healthy Community

"If our goal is healthy community and loving our neighbors, we need to rethink our approach.  Before we can learn from each other, before we can truly grow into a clearer picture of God's good kingdom, we have to fall in love with listening....Only as we engage in the hidden practice of listening do we learn about the struggles of others, gaining empathy where we once cast judgement." 


A knock on my door prodded me down the hallway to see who was on my porch.  I found two thirsty and adorable young ladies who had been playing outside.  They just needed a drink of water and a listening ear.
