This Summer during Sunday Service we are offering space to reimagine and apply the key components of life and ministry within a framework of Christian Community Development. These Sunday gatherings will offer space for worship, conversation, insight and practical skills for engaging in the renewal of all things.

This Sunday we will be leaning into the key component of embodying a prophetic presence.

As CCD practitioners we often find it necessary to raise awareness and raise our voices for reform or systemic change. We are called to dismantle lies, greed, broken structures, and unjust laws. It is time to intentionally practice prophetic presence as CCD practitioners. But what does it mean to be a prophetic presence in your community? In the broadest sense, prophetic presence is publicly standing up to harmful policies or practices that damage an individual or group’s human dignity and quality of life. Being a prophetic presence signals to others that you are not only calling out an injustice, but are committed to taking the necessary actions to see that change takes place.

For CCD, prophetic presence responds to the age-old question, “Am I my brother’s keeper?” God shows considerable concern for breaking the strongholds of injustice and false frameworks that operate in this world by correcting, redeeming, and restoring all that has been lost, broken, distorted, or unfairly gained.
