When the weather turns cold, it seems like two things are happening, becoming traditions. Maybe they'll survive the warmth in spring and summer this time around...
One, it feels nice to come into the church out of the cold. If memory serves me correctly, this illustration converted the first Anglo-Saxon king to become a Christian.
Second, the real warmth comes when you come in, cold fingers, and see Leo. Actually, you smell that Leo is here because of the coffee brewing in the parlor.
And that's where you find the holy room I'm talking about. It's where good discussion takes place. Leo has some books spread out on the coffee table. The Bible. The Upper Room. Our Daily Bread. And of course, Oswald Chambers.
Every once in a while, we get to sit around and talk, we take a few minutes and see where we'vebeen that the readings take us back to, or where they'll head us...
A cup of coffee warms the belly, some friends and the Word warm the spirit.
