The church after corona
Hungry, Elastic and notorious
following sermon Pentecost conference Opwekking Henk Soorvogel
On Pentecost Day Henk Soorvogel spoke at the digital Pentecost conference about the new normal for the Christian church. A lot will change in the coming time. It is important to return to the core values of the first church. The church as described in the Bible book of Acts was hungry, elastic and notorious. And the Church may - or perhaps should - be - in the near future, he argues.
Despite the risks mentioned, the church does not have to muzzle itself. When the church is progressive, it is notorious in the heavenly regions. That's what the church can stand for.
Working elastic on the elaboration of the vision given by Jesus Christ is part of this. If only to satisfy the hunger for God in the world. After all, there's enough provisions in the closet?
