“If today’s church does not recapture the sacrificial spirit of the early church, it will lose its authenticity, forfeit the loyalty of millions, and be dismissed as an irrelevant social club with no meaning for the 20th century.”
~ Martin Luther King, Jr. speaking of the church in relationship to civil rights in 1963. Just as true and dangerous today as it was then.
(quoted by John Piper, Bloodlines)
