Two or three
During Peace Week at Union College this last semester we had a discussion time. There was a bible verse shared that I am pretty sure most Christians know by heart. Matthew 18:20. But I think the crucial verse that should be read along with verse 20 is verse 19: "Again, I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by my Father in heaven. For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them."
When the verses were being read, a thought popped into my mind, This isn't just about prayer. This is about things that we are passionate about. Peace. Ending modern slavery. Anything that one or more of us are passionate about and get together in God's name for is where God is. This was an astonishing thought for me. I have heard sermon after sermon with verse 20 referenced, but always in association with prayer. Why do we just assume that God is only going to be with us when we pray? He is passionate about what we are passionate about and is there whenever you are brought together to follow our passions.
