But perhaps more times than not the Kingdom of Heaven comes in the places and ways that we don't always catch at first glance, in the situations that don't get the news recognition, in the conversations that happen on your neighbors front porch.
One of those things that we believe, as the local church of Kaleo, brings a piece of heaven into our neighbors' lives is fresh and good food.
In all reality, what is more needed to experience life the way we were meant to live except by having food right? Sure it's one of those simple things that often times, especially for those in middle-class America, you just may not think about... or not realize that people in your actual neighborhood don't have access to.
So, we decided as Kaleo Nashville to hold a benefit concert for the Woodbine Farmer's Market that just began. The benefit was on July 10th and it was a blast! Artists, Adam Foster, Matt Lovell, and Action! played for the benefit and we were able to raise some funds that will hopefully help this Market to hang around in the community of South Nashville.
Two weeks into the Market and its great to see how people in the community will rally over something so awesome as having our own Farmer's Market... and yet also over something so basic as having good and local resources. Things that give to us and back into our community as-well.
That's where we've seen Heaven break into our community recently.
