I don’t have much to say on this one. Any pastor can relate to the existence of “drifters.” People in a hopeless search for a perfect community in which they don’t have to feel any tension.
Unfortunately for drifters, the tension 1 we feel in community is partly how the Holy Spirit leads us into growth. If we always run to the comfortable, we’ll remain woefully under-developed spiritually.
- Not open hostility, don’t get the two confused. ↩
