Urban Ekklesia

House Church. Urban Church. Organic Church. Multicultural Church. Simple Church. This is a space created for both humble and passionate reflection on the missional, emerging church in urban North America.

A space for thinking out loud and inviting others to join the refining process. Justice, mission, politics, the city. Everything is connected. Theology is life.

I love NY mornings

A few days ago it really hit me again. I really do love NYC in the morning... espcially early on a Saturday morning. The city is just awakened though some weary laborers have just arrived home from their night shift. The air is fresh, and while traffic has not ceased, neither has it accumulated to a dizzying degree. There is a crispness in the air of the city that rivals its rural cousins. Preparations are underway in Manhattan for parades, bike rides, and walk-a-thons. Window guards make that sound of metal retreating up into a roll. The day begins! I love NYC in the Spring.

Yes. I’ve only been in NYC for a couple of early mornings. It’s like the city is letting out a huge sigh following its night-labor; and, then drawing in a deep breath of the freshest air available as it prepares for the next leg of the race which is about to begin.

BTW, I met one of your co-workers earlier this week at Rochester College. May God’s grace be with you and your fellow workers as you seek to help others experience the reality of Christ’s reign.
