God is rapidly urbanizing the world. For the first time in human history, more people live in cities than in rural areas. Followers of Jesus must learn how to navigate through the complexities of urban life. This blog documents my urban adventures both in Pittsburgh and in cities around the world. This is my personal blog, and my views may not necessarily reflect the views of North Way Christian Community, Bakke Graduate University, or any other organizations.

Normal is now Weird
The last couple of days have been relatively "normal" around the McCabe household. By that, I mean that things have been relatively calm by urban ministry standards. We didn't have any unexpected visitors to our house. There were no crisises that needed immediate pastoral attention. Nothing out of the ordinary really happened, and that in itself is out of the ordinary. We've come to expect that just about anything can happen at any time when doing life in the inner city. God always has our family on stand by, and we love that style of living. Instead of distancing ourselves from anything messy in life, we have thrown ourselves fully into the fray... God's mission to redeem the city. So, a little bit of peace of quiet is nice, but I know God could change that at any given moment. I'm looking forward to the adventure that comes with the calling that God has given our family.
