First Church of Christ on Park Square As today unfolds, are you prepared to be the face of Christ for the world? The ancient mystics suggest that the spiritual life is like a tree: the trunk is love, the core of the tree is patience, the roots are self-knowledge and the branches are discernment. Without strength at the core, roots and branches the love of Christ will be unhealthy within us.

First Church of Christ on Park Square one of our pastors, Donna Schaper, has written about the way contemporary life tends to "water us down," that we might pray: Spirit of the Living God, you whom no century or culture, holocaust nor tsunami can dilute, you of whom Paul spoke, baptize us again with clarity clear enough to hold great color. Keep us from spreading ourselves too thin and thicken our faith. Amen.

First Church of Christ on Park Square Do you know the difference between "churchianity" and following Christ? One key has to do with letting go - surrender - trust. As the season of Advent approaches, we will be looking at what this might mean for each and all of us.
