Some forms of church don’t last centuries or decades or even years.  They are very ephemeral (short-term) forms of church.  Such as you and me, here at this table.

Well, I don’t know about you but I am ready for new forms of church!

This is the second part of a four part series from 100 Huntley Street focussing on the question, “What is Church?”  It is 9 minutes long, but please take time to watch this video and interact with us about church.  It will be 9 minutes you will not regret!

The Church is not a religious community of worshippers of Christ but is Christ Himself who has taken form among men. Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Another timely quote by a hero of the faith.  Christ in us!  THAT is church.

Do you have any thoughts on the expressions of church you saw in this video?

For me, the cafe/church in Hamilton sounds like a wonderful community.  Since it is not far from here, I think I will go check it out.  (Unfortunately, the one in Houston called Ekklesia is a little too far away for me to drop in – but I would love to see visit that one as well!)
