we are... what is "church without walls"? what is important to ForestView what we believe what God offers a better way to live

a better way to live

What our world longs for as much as anything is a life that’s worth living – something radically different - an alternative to what the culture offers everyday.

 

With his life, Jesus exemplified a transcendent way of being, and with His words He invited us to pursue His path… “I am the way, the truth and the life”. It is life on the edge – exhilarating, significant, and deeply meaningful.

 

The quest will not always be easy. Dangers will line the way. But the potential of discovering a life so out of this world, makes the risk more than worth it.

Imagine a life…

Full of faith and courage for facing fears...

Not a life paralysed by caution and dread.

 

In which contentment leads to simplicity, and gratitude to generosity...

Not a life measured by possessions – where enough is never enough.

 

Not a life enslaved by demoralizing compulsions.

 

Softened with tenderness, mercy and compassionate…

Not a life indifferent to the hurting and forgotten.

 

Stabilized by an inner peace and tranquility...

Not a life tossed in a world of chaos and upheaval.

 

Steered by the discernment of truth and the practice of wisdom...

Not a life misguided by fickle fads and trendy philosophies.

 

Not a life entangled by pretence and duplicity.

 

Nourished by open, intimate and loving relationships – where souls are shared…

Not a life of detachment, self-protection and emotional isolation.

 

Inspired by a deep sense of calling – a life lived out of one’s ‘sweet spot'’…

Not a life without meaning, purpose or impact.

 

Touched by transcendence and sacred mystery – an encounter with God…

Not a life bored by religious talk and empty ritual.

 

Brimming with passion, excitement and joy

Not a life that would rather stay in bed.
