Holistic???

People are vastly complex. We have been created with an array of senses, as well as being mutli-dimensional (physical, mental, emotional and spiritual). Thus it only makes sense that God would want us to function this way as we live, serve and worship. This kind of an approach to faith is more then worship as music and song, preaching as talking and listening and missions as going and doing. Care and interest must be giving to how each person perceives and processes their world in order to effectively serve others and be served by them. Room must be created (both physically and metaphorically) for people to interact and experience God in a variety of ways. Faith should allow freedom for people to respond as they are “wired.”
