One of My Favorite Blogs

The Ipiphanist (Show + Tell) blog by Nick Charalambous (@ipiphanist) is fast becoming one of my favorite blogs.

Nick, a former journalist, is now the Web Campus Pastor at Newspring Church. (read more here about how that happened)

Nick’s blog is full of…

thoughts

ideas

questions

challenges

conversations

about how the church can more effectively use technology and the internet.

His latest blog post on Christian community is one of the best I’ve read on the subject.

Here are a few quotes from the post…..

What is unique about Christianity is the church. The church, the body of God, the community of God, gives Christians the power to move beyond mere human “community,” and generally do things that are not in what a typical person would consider their best interests.

The goal of the church isn’t a community or a better community. It is being the church: the field hospital, kitchen and armory of always-continuing skirmishes on the battlelines of a war between good and evil.

Community, as with church, is not a destination. It is not an origin. It is a camp. A fort. A refuge.

And if we’re going to defeat the enemy’s strongholds where they are now – in the web, the living network – maybe we need to start building our “shining cities on a hill” there, just as we built our cathedrals in centuries gone by.

You can should read the rest of the post at Nick’s blog here.
