I read recently where a Starbucks barista ended up donating a kidney to one of her regular customers. She didn't even know her all that well when she volunteered to be tested for a match. But then she tested as a good match and, well, the rest is history.

It is amazing what happens in community. You begin to see an inherent care and love in people. Yes, this can also be a manifest fruit of the spirit but this sense of belonging in community is, I think, a gift to all mankind.

What is, for you, the enemy of community? What prevents you from reaching out to others the way that your heart calls you to?

For me, it is busy-ness. Things get hectic, I get that deer-in-the-headlights look, and community is far beyond the stretch of my reach. Pity, really.

Again, what is your enemy of community? What would prevent you from giving up a kidney?
