This was the question posed by X-alt recently as the team pondered the future of the organisation.
For me it seems that, the real challenge posed to many of the local church leaders probably needs to be vocalised by the congregation members if X-alt, or indeed any initiative to promote Christian unity, is to continue within the local church.
Of course the answer may be that the local church leadership are quite happy to promote their own brand of “Christian unity” as long as it is in line with their plans, which of course may be a good idea but not always a God idea, but there you go that's me getting all spiritual again, and heaven forbid we should involve Him in the equation, whatever next, community prayer, surely not.
What is encouraging, however is a recent invitation the team has received from a group of church’s in Holmer Green to lead worship at their community outreach in June . Church’s with the foresight and will to build bridges with the local community and retain a worshipful attitude in its endeavour
Thank You Lord
