Peace, Love and Home Teams

Tiffany is very, very close to having our next baby. We have reached the point where we have started sleeping separately because she cannot get comfortable. Some nights she wants the bed. Some nights she wants the couch. Last night I got the bed and as I was drifting off I started thinking about how big our bed is. And then I got kind of lonely. I remember thinking that a bed this big should be shared. It was meant to be shared.

And that is true of our world. It is a big world. A great big, scary, ever-changing, fast-paced, hilarious, sick, beautiful, disgusting world. Looking at all of this parity and it is easy why people try to figure it out on their own. The problem is we are ALL broken. There is nothing we can find in this world to fix the emptiness. But we can fill it with God.

And He did not mean for us to be alone. He meant for us to be with Him and with others who are always looking for Him. We are all seeking Him through some kind of crazy, hard, love-filled quest for peace. Peace in ourselves, peace in the world, peace inside and out.

At Team Church we gather together to get closer to God through Home Teams. This Sunday and for the next few weeks we will be having Home Team sign-ups. I pray that you will join one of our groups. Just by getting together for an hour or two a week, you can find a little more love and a little more peace in this world. I look forward to seeing you Sunday.

On the Journey with You,
Scott
