A while back, in a sermon I can't find, I asked members of the congregation if they could shorthand their hopes for the life of faith in just six-words, a kind of uber-tweet. The idea was that these six words could aid in a kind of personal spiritual check-in throughout the day. Six words. Am I on them? Yes, good. No, OK. The following is my own brainstorm for six-words that might shape the life of a congregation like ours.
"...and the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations." Revelation 22:2
