Mission

admin — Fri, 22 May 2009 20:03:59 +0000

Jesus hung out with the poor and invites us to do the same by loving the least of our society. We hope to continue developing relationships with those around Denver who are in need and supporting ministries who are in the trenches of hurting communities. We realize that as we serve those who are struggling, we have just as much to learn and receive. For more information about specific ways to connect and serve, please email Julie at juliewag@gmail.com.

“He who loves his dream of a community more than the Christian community itself becomes a destroyer of the latter, even though his personal intentions may be ever so honest and earnest and sacrificial… The more clearly we learn to recognize that the ground and strength and promise of all our fellowship is in Jesus Christ alone, the more serenely shall we think of our fellowship and pray and hope for it.” Dietrich Bonhoeffer

NO CHURCH THIS SUNDAY 2/5

admin — Fri, 15 May 2009 19:13:59 +0000

Hi friends, as we watch the snowstorm move through, we feel that it’s best not to ask anyone to get on the roads Sunday morning. The snow will have stopped but the temperatures will be cold enough that they are expecting icy conditions throughout the metro area and with all our car seats full of kids, I’d rather we all be safe and warm. We’ll keep the Big Table planned for next week! Enjoy the Superbowl with each other and your friends and know that we are all together in mission on Sunday.

Your story matters. Adullam’s communities are made up of a captivating mosaic of life stories, each one containing its own unique and deep significance. We believe the collection of these redemptive stories has the power to creatively bless the city of Denver and beyond in a variety of meaningful ways.

Adullam communities are about the transformation of individual lives, local neighborhoods, and ultimately the world. What do we mean by transformation? We believe God exists as the primary protagonist in the unfolding story of creation. Transformation is simply what describes the journey of changing our roles in the story, going from antagonists-driven mostly by personal gain- toward joining a collaborative mission of redemption as God’s fellow protagonists. In doing justice, loving mercy, and walking humbly together in community we believe that what’s been broken in our lives, our communities…our world, has a chance at redemption.

While we are unashamedly a community of Jesus followers we believe that transformation isn’t about going to church. Actually, in most of our experiences simply “doing church” has often been a major distraction for people, both saint and sojourner, who want to relate to God and live out the Kingdom life. When Jesus spoke of the Kingdom we believe it was an invitation to not only dream of a better world to come, but an invitation to start leaning into and living out of that new world in the here and now. And in a culture filled with individualism, consumerism, and materialism we recognize that this ain’t no small task.
So, what if your story takes on a bigger role in this redemption narrative than you realize? What if a people peculiar enough to live in inclusive community can dynamically counteract the forces of individualism? What if we gave away our time and money to the broken and poor of our city rather than going with the consumeristic flow of spending it on ourselves? What if listening to God’s voice together so that we can partner with rather than work against took priority over our own self-centered ambitions?
We are a network of communities tied together by the “What If?” And if you think these are tensions worth engaging in, you’re more than welcome to travel with us…
