I love how intense and intimate and spiritual this way of living in community is.
Last night, the host guy, who runs his own business, was dealing with some crises. He was late, no big deal. The rest of us did the meal but put off taking the Lord's Supper until he arrived.
In the end, the taking of the Lord's Supper, focused around the apparent tension in Philippians between Paul commanding, "continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling" in chapter 2 and his command in chapter 4: "Rejoice in the lord always."
How do you do both all the time?
A vibrant, honest conversation developed that took us to the time we had to break up the meeting.
I love the intimacy and transparency of these gatherings. What sweet intensity! Guess I'm repeating myself.
