Now that I'm back in the country, I want to welcome all the folks who have recently joined the Original Church community - many of you have probably discovered me from the Way of the Fathers Podcast.
Please post something here - either for discussion, or just to introduce yourselves! We hope to hear from you. And remember that supporting this community is always optional, but that option is there if you want to support what I'm doing online, both here and on YouTube - but of course the whole point of this community is to have a place for comments and conversation, since I always have the comments turned off for my YouTube videos.
So let's hear from you!
I mentioned in The Journey that I wrote a song based on Isaiah 2, which is one of my favorite OT passages:
In days to come, the mountain of the Lord’s house
shall be established as the highest mountain, and raised above the hills.
All nations shall stream toward it. Many peoples shall come and say:
“Come, let us go up to the Lord’s mountain, to the house of the God of Jacob, That he may instruct us in his ways, and we may walk in his paths.” For from Zion shall go forth instruction, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
He shall judge between the nations, and set terms for many peoples.
They shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks; One nation shall not raise the sword against another, nor shall they train for war again. House of Jacob, come, let us walk in the light of the Lord!
I hope you like the song!
I hope to have another installment of THE JOURNEY up this Saturday - here's the text for the rest of the chapter - I didn't bother with the colored text since this is all from the Gospel of John.
