Here's the first verse of a hymn we sang in chapel the other day that resonated with me. The text is by Ruth Duck (who coincidentally also wrote a book I used for my project on inclusive God-language).
"As a fire is meant for burning with a bright and warming flame,
so the church is meant for mission, giving glory to God's name.
Not to preach our creeds or customs, but to build a bridge of care,
we join hands across the nations, finding neighbors everywhere."
