IONA: Growing Communities of the Heart (GNG EPISODE 69)

In Waking the Dead, John Eldredge gives this picture of a community of the heart, "Living in community is like camping together… for a month, in the desert… without tents. All your stuff is scattered out there for everyone to see.” Growing communities like Columba did at Iona in A.D. 564 is not very glamourous; It is hard, messy work. But growing communities of the heart to shine as lights in this dark world IS the way forward.
