Church
One of the brilliant gifts of where we meet each Sunday is its visibility from one of the main roads in Kelowna. Each week I drive past the church a handful of times on my way about town for meetings, errands, and appointments. Yet we know that on a Monday as we drive past Gordon and Casorso we aren't passing by the Church (note the capital "C"), only a (mostly) empty building where a few staff work in the office.
The Church isn't a building, we don't need the walls to be the Church. After all, Jesus did not say to Peter "On this rock I will build my building". A building is just a meeting place for God's "Ekklesia" - gathering, congregation, community, assembly - and that's you and me.
So WE are the Church. What does that mean? How are we supposed to live? Ephesians 4 has a lot to say about that, read it before you come on Sunday and we'll unpack it together.
Love,
Pastor Joel Lise
