It was very idyllic. It was so nice to be a part of a community where the people shared the same values.
In a way, we are hippies. We are looking for alternatives to the establishment. We're not going to go out and buy expensive condos. That's not for us.
We'd rather have faithful Jews, Baptists or Buddhists than some of the Catholics who nearly run you over in the parking lot after Mass.
Don't aim to plant churches. Aim to plant a church that will plant many other churches.
You can't find the answers on the bottom of a whiskey glass, but if you look hard enough you'll forget the questions.
The community will be somewhat self-selecting. If you are a rabid gun collector or if your lifestyle is drinking and partying, this probably will not be the place for you.
