About Me
- Karl Ingersoll
- I am four years out of a 34 year experience in pastoral ministry in the institutional church. Through 3 years of diligently, prayerfully searching for a vision for my church, I began to realize that God was birthing something in my heart that could not be confined by walls, creeds, or governance. Through adversity, I began to see God as I had never seen Him and myself as I had never seen myself. (Isaiah 6) The constraints seemed to increase and I chafed more against them than I could possibly explain. I am just not an institutional person. I believe that the church is first organism and needs to be cared for as such. When secular models or organization begin to govern the church then something vital is lost. When I look down the road, all I see is God. I don’t care what’s ahead of God . . . I just care that God is ahead of me. Much of what you will read in my blog will reflect this journey and the many factors that have precipitated our leaving Ur. Karl and Elaine
