While praying for his community on the Island of Iona, the Celtic
monk St. Columba described his experience as a thin place- a
location where heaven and earth seemed only thinly separated.In the
same way, God's kingdom is being realized here on earth with
stories of restoration and redemption. Our God moved into the
neighborhood, seeking to invite us into his story of
reconciliation, and commission us to missionally engage our
neighborhoods with the good news of the kingdom.Joining the
concepts of monasticism and mission, author Jon Huckins will walk
you through six postures of missional formation: listening,
submerging, inviting, contending, imagining, and entrusting. As you
begin to employ these postures, become apprentices of Jesus who are
committed to living in and experiencing the thin places.Through
Thin Places, create a fertile soil to commune with God, live in
deep community with others, and extend the good news of the kingdom
in your local contexts.
