We gather together and sit in a living room and try to approach an infinite god.

We think in abstract terms of city boundaries and subjective measures of betterment, personal revelation, divine contact. We pray in concrete terms of broken hearts and tears and messy lives.

Behind words expressing goals and desires and expectancy lies the real fear and truth that we’re doing something natural but hoping for supernatural results.
