Most local churches are made of people who would never meet up for any other reason. Diverse interests, backgrounds, careers and income levels are present in the local church. Many have a diverse ideas of what should happen within the building, often different than making disciple makers. Programs and budgets are calculated by numbers in the pew rather than relationships that model the love of Jesus. Perhaps I’m too critical, but hell will never defeat the power of the church linking arms to spread the gospel and reproduce itself.
