Truth Should Never Travel Faster Than Love.

Your Soul Craves Truth, Beauty, Wonder, Love. Your Soul Craves To Dream, To Imagine, And Even Simply To Understand. Your Soul Craves To Connect, To Commune, To Create.

The Church Is Not Segregated By Region Or Cities. That's An Antiquated View Of The World. We Are United With Churches All Over The World Working Toward Common Goals Based On Shared Values. Mosaic Is One Of The Most Racially Diverse Churches On The Planet. Our Community And Extended Church Family Is Global And Completely Integrated.

The Barbarian Way Was, In Some Sense, Trying To Create A Volatile Fuel To Get People To Step Out And Act. It's Pretty Hard To Get A Whole Group Of People Moving Together As Individuals Who Are Stepping Into A More Mystical, Faith-oriented, Dynamic Kind Of Experience With Christ.

That's What Was Really The Core Of The Barbarian Way.

Jesus Invites Us Into A Community Where Imperfect People Can Find Acceptance, Love, Forgiveness, And A New Beginning.
