Imagine

Shawn McCraney emphasizes that the Christian experience should not be about anticipating an afterlife to encounter Jesus, but rather about living with His presence here and now, as the Kingdom of God dwells within us. He encourages believers to imagine and implement a better expression of faith on earth, focusing on peace, love, and relief from burdens, instead of waiting for a future heavenly state.

CAMPUS church was established as an experiment to demonstrate that peace, love, and the fruit of the Spirit can thrive in a religious setting that allows for complete freedom of thought, expression, and participation, welcoming all beliefs and ideas without enforcing dogma or financial collection. Despite its successes in creating a diverse and inclusive environment, the declining attendance suggests many people prefer structured religious frameworks, highlighting a human tendency to favor restrictions and authority over openness and liberty.
