Yvonne Posted June 12, 2012 Posted June 12, 2012 Here http://www.christiancentury.org/article/2012-05/just-isn-t-working is an interesting article about how churches must change and grow. I think its interesting that the congreation about which she speaks is busy living their faith - faith in action. Still, I'm reading "The Mysic Heart" by Teasdale and I think its important to have the deeper quiet to be contemplative in addition to faith in action. Anyway, an interesting article.
soma Posted June 13, 2012 Posted June 13, 2012 Yvonne thank you for the link. This confirms my feeling that Christianity needs to evolve spiritually. It is losing the cultural war because it is teaching opinions that annoy and not the stillness of the mind that leads to redemption. People who left or avoid churches today are looking for the Holy Spirit. The churches need to make God's presence in the here and now the priority.
