Erik Walker Wikstrum writes, “Common wisdom holds that people come to church for a sense of belonging, and that getting involved with a committee or task force is a great way to meet people and feel more connected.” But what if we come for an even deeper reason, he asks: “to have our lives transformed.” What if we understood our participation in the life of this community as a key source of spiritual sustenance, and a source of deep joy?
