Family dinner

For a while now Crossroads has been running a more traditional church service of a Sunday afternoon and a few 'house services' of a Sunday morning. We're changing things up a bit this year and one of those changes is to have a midweek house get-together. Going into it I knew that it wasn't so much a time for new teaching, but rather a time to 'share life together', young and old, but I didn't exactly know what that would look or feel like. It was a wonderful evening, sitting on the deck in the late afternoon sun, squeezing past people to get to our seats and helping serve one another food. Damon shared his vision for what this new thing will be. One week we will join together, adults and kids, and learn from the Bible, like a big family devotion. And the next the kids will go and play while the adults talk through living as Christians in the workplace, at home, with our mates and rellies. We'll keep alternating between the two. And we'll do all this over dinner.
