We welcome Jesus, as he welcomes us, into the work of mending the world
Nearly 25 years ago, in the Ministry Inquiry Program at Goshen College, I met with a pastor as a potential intern. The first thing he said was: “The way we do church in North America doesn’t work.”
I’ve always been a small-church person. A church, for me, is a place where you know almost everyone by name. This was true for me growing up, except that all the little old ladies looked the same. (Was that Mrs. Peter Toews or Mrs. Henry Janzen?)
