For the city of the saints is above, although here below it begets citizens, in whom it sojourns till the time of its reign arrives, when it shall gather together all in the day of the resurrection; and then shall the promised kingdom be given to them, in which they shall reign with their Prince, the King of the ages, time without end.

St. Augustine of HippoThe City of God

Tent-living

Just as our forefathers once did, so too do we carry our tents from place to place on our missional journey, hoping to make and hold space for those who seek refuge and belonging, telling and showing them a glimpse of “the kingdom of heaven [that] is at hand” (Matt 3:2).

We share our thoughts and reflections on the reality of living in the tension of both/and, in light of the paradoxical nature of God’s Word. “For while we are still in this tent, we groan, being burdened—not that we would be unclothed, but that we would be further clothed, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life.” (2 Cor 5:4)
