The Dwelling Place
Welcome to the blog for The Dwelling Place! We are a community that is seeking to expose the nature of God and embody the teachings of Jesus Christ. We believe that this is a life-long pursuit that is based in the realization that we are in Christ and Christ is in us.
Our desire is for everyone to have a fresh encounter with Jesus and the ancient tradition of following in his way of life. We believe that walking this way of Jesus makes us fully human, thus becoming a part of God’s solution to saving the world and less a part of the human problem. As we journey along this ancient path, we become the kind of people that no longer inflict damage but instead bring healing, wholeness, and blessing.
With that in mind, we will be using this blog to explore numerous aspects of life and living in the 21st century. We will be introducing sermon series, devotional writings, and theological teachings. In our desire to help cultivate a Life of Prayer, we will offer daily prayers and frequent thoughts and articles on the nature and ways of prayer. Along the way, we will throw in a few reviews of books, movies, and music. We will look at the lives of people who are learning what it means to be a dwelling place of God in their personal situations. We will also occasionally look at what is going on in the world around us and try to make some sense of it, or consider ways we can bring God’s perspective into our perspective and response.
Our hope is that the material found here will be of help and encouragement to you as you find your way on this incredible journey of life with God!
