Church Under The Bridge
April 14, 2009
I’ve heard of this several times and each time I want to visit more and more. This place excites me because it reminds me that the Church is really alive and well in the poor parts of the world and that God is using it to reach out to a world in need of rescue. Amazing. Here’s an exerpt and a link.
“We are all trolls and we are all the sinners. So we got our warts and ugliness, and people are scared sometimes of the old troll under the bridge,” Dorrell says. “By society’s standards, we are misfits. We don’t have buildings, we don’t have pretty people—we have these people who are somewhat rejected in culture but when you really get to know the trolls, with all the warts and the ugly side of their past experiences, there really is a genuineness and a lot to learn from them. So we are trolls, nobody gets excluded. You can even be a Pharisee, and rich and be a troll.”
Amen.
