“What if there was a church that was committed to causes larger than its own preservation” - Rob Bell
I heard this quote in a sermon podcast from Rob Bell a while ago, and it’s still stuck in my head. I think every church ought to take a look at itself and see what percentage of its programs, events, time, money, and energy is being used on self-preservation.
WAH! I listened to that sermon a couple months ago. Not surprisingly, it’s still rattling around between my ears too.
