It’s true that I live inside/out.  I live out of my core whether I want to admit it or not.  It’s the same for any community.  We all live out of our collective cores, so to speak.  So, I think it’s pretty important for me as a leader of a “community” to figure out what “the spirit of our culture” is or what “character” ought to inform FBC’S ideals.

Sounds like we need to sort this one out…
