Here's something I jotted down as a question after reading through those of others: How must we understand "church" to be a new kind of human existence, and what might this look like?" This connects in with some of what has been mentioned, but it s…

Good luck on catching up with sleep. I was in my own time zone and it took two days to recover, so I can't imagine the time change plus all the fun of VOX/IMN. It was great to meet you last week and I look forward to future connections and hearing of how you are upsetting the status quo.

Hi,
I hadn't realised from your e-mail that this site for cityofdreams was Alex's, I didn't pick this up until I had registered. It certainly taps me into a far wider conversation, I shall observe for a while unitl I feel confident to comment, as I may be a little out of my depth at this level.
Good wishes, Angela

Hey Geoffrey-
I'm interested in what you're doing in Scotland, with the 5 churches? I think my friend Eric Bryant - Mosaic (LA) mentioned something about you guys.
