Shared Experience - Day 18

Krista and I attended a concert tonight. Two groups we like and wanted to hear. One, we've never of. All three were entertaining. Along the way we met up with three friends. What is it about a concert . . . or movie . . . or late night coffee house that makes sharing the experience so much more, well, more? The concert was no different than if we'd been by ourselves. There's just something about the common experience that "ups the amps" - at least for me.

Recently, where I worship, we've been looking through Jesus' teachings concerning his followers as "a body." It seems there is something powerful about the "group" that extends beyond the "me" and Jesus didn't want them, or us, to miss it.

I wonder if he and the twelve were standers, sitters, or out-of-control screamers at concerts?
