concrete

My friend Tom teases me about my cityboy background and celebrates that I have learned to appreciate places without concrete or traffic noise. Two weeks ago I had a meeting in one of the sections of LA where you can actually walk around, sort of like a northeast city. It reminded me why I like the city. Someday I hope I can live in a walking city again...

In the meantime I'm reminded of Ray Bakke's statement that the fall took place in a garden... and the kingdom of God comes in a city.
