The Chibi News Daily Reflection
Hi, I'm Jordan and I'm a vicar in the Church of England
As a British citizen, I belong to the nation of Great Britain
It is a place I was born that has a culture and a language distinct to it
It has a continuity that goes back many generations and I live in the heritage of the people who have gone before me
And those who are to come will be impacted by our actions now
In a similar way, Christians represent Jesus to the world and work together to make him known
In the Bible, the Apostle Paul compares the church to the body of Christ
His hands and feet in the world that span across time and space
this body spans many generations and approximately 2.4 billion people across the globe right now
it is because of those who have gone before us that the church has grown so much this makes me
think that the onus is upon me to represent Jesus and those who have gone before me well
if I had that mindset in all my places of belonging my family my community my nation
how might my life be different and how might this world look different
