This Summer, during Sunday Service, we are offering space to reimagine and apply the key components of life and ministry within a framework of Christian Community Development. These Sunday gatherings will provide space for worship, conversation, insight, and practical skills for engaging in the renewal of all things.
This Sunday, we will be leaning into the key component of listening to the Community.
The CCD practice of listening to the community may be one of the most practical components, yet it is one of the most challenging to execute effectively. We often sabotage the sacred act of listening because we feel the pressure to produce results, whether the tension comes from external institutional constraints or our internal drive to make something happen. It also seems counterintuitive to sit, listen, and wait to act in situations where there seems to be so much that needs to be done. Listening to the community involves a posture of learning and empathy.
“A listening heart is always open, sensitive to the joy and pain of others, offering a space within itself for the other to enter. It gives each person what is so badly needed—an affirmation of their place in this world.” —Eliezer Shore
