The Word became flesh and blood and moved into the neighborhood” (John 1:14, The Message Version). When I think of New Wine, New Wineskins, John’s words come to my mind because New Wine, New Wineskins seeks to move into areas of Portland and beyond with the message of God’s love found in the Living Word, Jesus, and in the written word, the Bible. As a pastor, I appreciate NWNW’s focus on creating opportunities for redemptive dialogue with people in the margins and with those who have chosen a different sacred pathway. And as a pastor, I also consider NWNW a ministry to turn to when I need insight into the many unique textures found in the culture of Portland. I highly endorse the New Wine movement!

When one looks at where the pace is being set regarding cultural engagement, New Wine, New Wineskins is definitely at the forefront of the conversation. Our church has been challenged and impacted by New Wine. It has definitely shaped the way we look at ministry and people.
