I love these times at AXIS

This is one of those evenings at AXIS that I love. First of all, there are 24 of us, and it is always better when there are a lot of us. Second, I am looking around the room, and all kinds of wonderful, deep, meaningful conversations are happening. Anthony and Amanda are on one couch having brother - sister time; Stacy, Jamie and Taylor are having a deep conversation about relationships, Deanne and Kimberly are talking about trips they would like to take with their husbands; Corwin is teaching Jeremy Walraven guitar and Eric and Jeremy Williams are having a deep cousin conversation in the dining room.

This is the power of true community. People who might not ordinarily come together, sharing life. We had a very good devo and a lot of sharing and now everyone has settled into companionable conversation.

If you ever want to come and partake (even if you aren't 20 something) - please do! It is a simple formula...eat, hear the word, share life and pray. But God shows up. Sometimes powerfully. I love it!!!!
