Click on the picture so it enlarges then look carefully at the “front porch” of this church. Both sides of the Narthex (a word used just to make you high church folks comfy) look like this. Don’t you love it?

My friend Jeff Eaton pastors HOPE Church in Frankfort, Kentucky. If you’ll visit, he’ll invite you to “sit a spell.”

I love this. If I built a church in a non-urban (or maybe even urban)  temperate climate setting, this is a feature I’d want to include.

What would it do for you if your church had a “sit a spell” approach to relationships? God does.
