Come Further Up, Come Further In

"Come further up, come further in!" This cry was written by C.S. Lewis as one of his Narnia characters (the Unicorn) experienced Lewis' version of eternal life in his book, The Last Battle. This cry resonates with the heart of Paul in 2 Corinthians. He longed for the church to live in unity with God, himself, and one another. There is an invitation that stands for us in the Church, and that invitation is open our lives as we share in similar circumstances and sufferings because the day of salvation has come! We want and need to be a church that goes "further up and in" in how we love another, stand in unity, and grow deeper in Christian maturity together.2 Corinthians 6:1-13
