Walk with the wise and become wise, for a companion of fools suffers harm.
Proverbs 13:20 NIV
Pick a spot 15km away.
Imagine starting to walk there!
Who do you want to journey with you?
(Some people will just get you into trouble, do nothing but complain, etc - fools)
The ultimate person to walk with is Jesus.
How do we do that?
His Word - read it, absorb it, learn it, let it wash through and over us
His Spirit - his voice we need to hear
His community - living with, supporting, learning with His people
His mission - the journey is to be walked out in the world, living our faith in whatever and wherever we are, being Jesus hands and feet in the restoration project, loving the people in front of us...

...four men arrived carrying a paralyzed man on a mat. They couldn't bring him to Jesus because of the crowd, so they dug a hole through the roof above his head. Then they lowered the man on his mat, right down in front of Jesus... Mark 2:3-4 NLT Great account of inventiveness and determination to get their friend to see Jesus. Love this. Do you wonder about the back story? Are these the same 4 people who bring this man food? Take him to the toilet every day. Clean him up. Does he live with one of them? Are they family? Are there whole families or groups of people in the background who have supported and cared for this man? A group of children who grew up seeing their parents love in action? Probably. Healing Help Hope These things are found in community. These 4 guys are the heroes here. The upfront people. One day it will be interesting to see who the background heroes are. #loveinaction #community #inthistogether #walkingeachotherhome #gospelofmark
