He'll manage to start one in your living room if you let him in the door! His favorite book to study is Acts where we see the original unification of believers as the church. G-pa has used the term Koinonia a million times to define the relaitonship of those early beleivers. Each time he says it, he clenches his fist and acts as though there is great weight on his arm, then looks right into your heart and says with greatest passion, Koinonia, Koinonia. I am convinced that when we find freedom through the sacrifice of Christ and find our joy in Him that there is only His love left to share, in the good times, and the bad. His love, through us, to each other is Koinonia, and that is the kind of love that jumps racial divides to heal and create bonds that glorify our father in heaven and embodies the church that He established. That's living, that's love, that's Jesus! PRIASE GOD! My husband’s grandfather planted churches for 50 years. He’ll manage to start one in your living room if you let him in the door!
