Sue and I have been attending Flood in San Diego and are now part of Flood Hillsdale, another Flood at a different location. We've been members for almost a year and it has been refreshing and transformational. <br /><br />While I believe God can transform people anywhere, I find it is easier to allow Jesus to transform me in an environment that embraces transformation. Such an environment is full of mercy and strives to find the right tension between grace and obeying the rules. Love and intentional, holy submission are critical to success. <br /><br />If you want to see what Flood looks like in San Diego, check out www.diveintoflood.com. <br /><br />Developing community is important too. It is messy and takes work and love, but is essential for developing the relationships, vulnerability, and openness essential for reaching those outside of church and helping them to live a transformed life. <br /><br />Glad you got to enjoy Atlanta and Vegas. <br /><br />PrestonUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02278415098228073570noreply@blogger.com
