Community Profile: Dream Sunday #2

by Phil Nellis

On the first Sunday of June, we got to experience how David and Wendy Rice have understood God’s invitation and call on their lives to live simply, intentionally and creatively. Some of the themes they fleshed out for us in conversation were around ecology, food sources, cooking, farming, agrarian rhythms, educational toys and the complexity of navigating all of these things as a family on a low budget, in an urban center, while in grad-school. Talk about an adventure, and one they have embraced with high degrees of resolve and playfulness. You can read more about David’s thoughts on what it might mean for leaders in the church to take their cues from agrarian culture as opposed to industrial culture here. Also, there is a list of great and practical resources that have shaped and informed David and Wendy below…enjoy!
