Continuing Our Witness Through Changing Circumstances

While nostalgia is a natural byproduct of doing life with the people we love, it can hold us captive to the past and make us reluctant to adapt to changing circumstances. In our faith, longing too much for how things used to be can cause us to miss out on new opportunities to welcome others into God's community. In an inevitably and perpetually changing world, what remains constant is God and His call for us to follow Him. True discipleship means learning to accept change and allowing God to grow us into people who participate in His kingdom, no matter the circumstances.
