i put into my write up as a general conference delegate. it is my hope for general conference.
A principle need of the church, as I see it, is to name and pull away from the practices that make the church "of the world." I share with our church that we are unique people joined together by Christ, and being unique we are not bound by labels and stigmas of liberal or conservative as the culture knows and reacts towards them. If we are able to break from this practice of placing each other then we are able to start to become the church and then start to examine and discuss the business and practices of the church.
too bad i missed out on getting elected so i can't live this out as a delegate, but maybe we can encourage other who are.
