One (very powerful) benefit of #LiveLocal is the “redwooding” | Jarrin Jackson

One (very powerful) benefit of #LiveLocal is the “redwooding” & fellowship.

Redwood roots arent deep, but they grow outwards & integrate with other redwoods’ roots. The shallowroots are only a problem if the tree is alone.

Fellowship enables us to support each other, and so #LiveLocal is about building that local community up to coalesce.

Also, from a republic perspective, the People can impanel grand juries to prosecute anyone.

Imagine the influence of People managing the government and freely choosing to prosecute bad government actors (or anyone else).

No, I’m still not in favor of “organizations” per se, but in favor of decentralized and autonomously functioning communities that understand common law & how to manage their governments.

That’s the aim - from a government perspective.

But none of that happens if the Church isnt focused on the gospel of Jesus Christ; it’s a civic ethic that only comes from people discipled to follow Christ.
