Laurelyn, your descriptions and insights help articulate why I miss being with and biking with the group and why I'm so excited to rejoin soon. I audibly said "Wow" to your statement that the church should be "a place where weakness is not an excuse for judgment, but an opportunity to love." Let us live that fully!

Sounds like some hard riding. I especially was touched by the guys caring about you. That's Christ's love in action. Keep shaping the church for the future... You have the ability to articulate your ideas and that's a gift. Have fun...you may miss those mountains after miles of cornfeilds.:) You may not know me...I'm on conference board and I think what you are all doing is awesome.

You're right... that's an example of what the church can be at its best. I wish we demonstrated that to one another more often in the thick of our "normal" lives. Continue to challenge and encourage "us older folks!" Laurelyn, that’s a really neat story about how the other bikers were able to come alongside you to encourage and help.

Continue to challenge and encourage “us older folks!”
