| From
time to time the development of our humanity requires
a spirit of renewal. We can observe this in humanity's
history. We also know this in our own personal lives.
This spirit of renewal helps enliven and strengthen
our work, our sense of direction, our lives. Just
such a spirit of renewal set in motion the founding
of The Christian Community in 1922.
The
Christian Community recognizes Christ's deed of life
and death as the pivotal renewal in humanity's history.
He brought a new relationship between human beings
on earth and the beings of the spiritual worlds. Through
his indwelling in the sacraments, this revitalizing
impulse continues to be available to us individually
and in community.
Christ
replenishes our life in sacramental community, which
in turn offers us as individuals the opportunity to
find and connect with his regenerating impulse in
our own lives, in the life of the whole of humanity,
and in the life of the entire earth. |
