I‘m chewing on the words of the Wandering Rabbi: “Sell everything and follow me. Let go of all the stuff, lighten your load and come take a walk.”
When it comes to the way I did church and faith most of my life, I have to ask how far off did I (we?) wander from the road Jesus travelled?
The story of the Good News Journalists that travel the (un)Known World telling stories of Faith, Hope and Love quickly evolved into an institute that crusades around in search of power and wealth. Somewhere else it became a club of elite members constantly judging people to be in or out. Somewhere it started as a great Idea, but got dragged behind by hidden agendas and selfish ideals.
I can go on like this for quite a while.
But somewhere someone sold her stuff and followed.
Somewhere someone broke the chains and started to run.
Somewhere someone lost his religion and found God.
Somewhere someone is still on that journey.
What I would give to be that someone...

where are all the somewhere's
Hi Fourie
I really like your post, but I want to know where are all the somewhere people? Are they in community or are they too meek to find and you have to look hard to find them. would it not be great to find a community of somewhere people
