There's a moment on the edge of a diving board where everything in you wrestles; the part that wants to jump and the part that wants to stay put. A poet calls it less dive, more surrender.

In this fourth sermon of the PLACE series, the C is Catalyst. Pastor Steven asks what it takes to become the kind of person, and the kind of church, that provokes real change. It starts inside: listening to God, honesty before God, loving like God, participating in God. These are the practices that ripple outward from the heart into the city. But the deeper turn comes when suffering flips the whole story from "what can I achieve?" to "how can I give myself away?" Dante ended the Divine Comedy with a single image: the love that moves the sun and other stars. That love is what we dive into. And the ripples belong to God.
