But there is some great stuff here to chew on.
Some of the more provoking quotes here for your pondering:
The church is especially notorious for doing this. We have kid’s ministries and youth ministries and young adults and older adults — all separated from each other because of age, thereby negating any positive and necessary influence [...]
If you haven’t read much of Tim Challies’ blog, it’s worth the few minutes a day it takes to drop by his site. Here’s an excerpt from his post today titled “Our Highest Aim”:
A few years ago I spoke to a pastor of a small church that had been formed largely on the basis [...]
