Jonathan Edwards

Within God is a community of persons pouring glorifying love into one another.

“God is not a static thing…but a dynamic, pulsating activity, a life, almost…a kind of dance” C.S. Lewis

And our fellowship is with the Father and with His Son, Jesus Christ. We write these things to make our joycomplete.

The God who is “us” draws near to us so that “us” can draw us into the circle of his “us-ness”.
