A poem about Johnny will resonate with countless numbers of Christians who may feel in a place of transition. This is about Stage 5 and 6 in the Stages of Faith. Stage 5 is deeply transitional similar to Stage 4, but mystery & paradox can sit comfortably with deep assurance because they are not separated, but are more integrated into a meaningful whole. Stage 5 people see both sides of an issue at the same time & suspect that things are organically relalted to each other. They may experience some hostility and criticism from people in Stage 1-3 (Traditional Institutional Church) because like 'Johnny' that had to move on. In Stage 6 as well as 5, what is crucial is they are not focused on survival, security, personal significance or their position or title. Self interest is no longer the centre of thier personal lives. They are able to see truth in other worldviews but without compromising the essentials of the Person and Finished Work of Jesus Christ. Stage 5 & 6 people are committed to integrating thier faith into the whole of life, not just on a Sunday morning.
