This last weekend I drove to Mckinney TX both to celebrate the accomplishment and fresh dream of my best friend of nearly 30 years, as well as to be a part of an international gathering of women celebrating their faith in what we know as the IF:gathering. As I drove 3 hours home, tired as i was, I had plenty of time to process and unpack it all. At any rate, last weekend’s talks sparked several conversations in my heart: When did art leave the church?  And what is the point of church at all?
