I am currently reading a book "The Story of Christianity" by Justo Gonzolez. It is a historical book of Christianity starting with the Reformation of the church to Present day. I am reminded in the reading that the church and christian faith continually experiences changes that in some ways have been experienced before, but in others have a whole new expression. Here is a quote that caught my eye this week:
"An old world was passing away, and a new one was being born in its place. It was unavoidable that the church too would feel the impact of the new times that, just as new forms of being human were emerging, new forms of being Christian would also emerge."
I am gaining a whole new appreciation of where Christianity is at today, buy understanding how we actually got here!
