This is a helfpful and thought provoking little video. I love Rollins' line, referring to the church, "I am not going to let anyone colonize the space…including myself." I wish this were true of all churches in the west.
Suspended Space from Peter Rollins on Vimeo.
What do you think of the concept of "suspended space?"
I do believe that this is one of the truly Jesus type counter-cultural things we can do – ya know, love each other. 🙂
“So that when we do fight, we fight as friends”; we need this in our churches. This week where I heard of a group of businessmen discussing the plight of the Church of Scotland. Their concern was twofold: keeping it going for its cultural value – they are not believers. Secondly they would really like us all to get along. Its at least a start,a step away from being know as ‘fightunfundies’ toward being known for our love.
A good message to remember Rob!
