but we hope it reaches far beyond our walls. We chose the name in part to honor the community that inspired us, but also to acknowledge the diversity of the Christian experience. We believe that every human being is created & gifted by God; therefore, every human being is invited to be a real part of the church, regardless of background, belief, sexual orientation, gender identity, class, age or any of the other categories people use to separate or exclude. We believe that when we share the truth of our lives we learn that we are not alone. The stories are of faith & doubt. Stories of struggle & triumph. Stories of marginalization & homecoming. Stories of love. We hope people of all backgrounds & traditions will read, listen & engage with https://storiesfromavillage.org
