It is easy to take scripture out of context, and thereby
indulge in misplaced triumphalism. How often do we
hear of “new things” when a church or fellowship
hasn’t completed the “old things” Jesus asked of
them? Last Spring’s newsletter shows that we were
anticipating a busy year ahead. Looking back, how
our plans came to nothing! All the talk now is of
getting back to normal, or “new normal” at least, yet
is some kind of normal the land God calls us to
occupy?
