This past June, I told you that I had a sense that this season would be taking us to some hard places. Hard just didn't seem to work as a season theme, however, so instead, we are heading into The Tensions. Everything about this coming season is designed to stretch us, challenge us, and invite us into tension. It is in those places that we grow and learn best. It is in the tension that we discover more of who we are and what we are capable of.
And so, we want to wade into all of it: the tensions we feel about God and faith, the tensions we feel within ourselves, and the tensions we experience within our relationships. The easy path always tries to avoid tension. This year we are going to take the road less travelled and confront those tensions, enter them, wrestle with them, and hopefully walk away blessed because of it. Only three more sleeps until we get started!
For this particular Sunday, I want to ease us into the year with a reminder of why Nexus exists, what we are doing together, and how we are trying to do it. This will be a wonderful primer Sunday for those relatively new to Nexus or for those who have considered joining us. It will also be a great refresher for the rest of us. So if there is anyone you know who has wondered what Nexus is all about, this is the week for them. Perhaps invite them to tag along with you.
To that end, I will be taking us through Nexus' Path, Passion, and Practices. Of course, there are new stories to be told and plenty of fun to be had. I trust Sunday morning will be a worthwhile reminder of why we do this thing called Nexus together. So, I hope you will join us Sunday for Join the Joyride.
