Online! | Re: | | "...many contemporary Christians have historical "amnesia." They are missing vital aspects of the faith that are necessary for spiritual growth and maturity, and as a result they lack roots - an understanding of where they have come from and who they really are. Christian's today have lost hold of our collective story, and that loss is one reason why liturgy resonates with so many. The recovery of liturgy offers them a way to re-enter the narrative, to re-engage with the story." - The Revd Dr Winfield Bevins, Ever Ancient Ever New

Online! | Re: | | "John Calvin rightly observed that, “the human mind is an idol factory”. We keep making idols of mind and matter on a daily basis. One day our idols will fail us. May God help us to refocus our love and adulation toward Him and his Son, Jesus Christ who suffered and died for our sins and rose again for our justification." - Bishop Felix Orji

Online! | Re: | | "The church as we know it today seems a million miles from the New Testament church. That may be a great generalization, but I will stand on it. There is a gulf between our average Christianity and the church of New Testament that makes the Grand Canyon look like a cavity in someone's tooth." Leonard Ravenhill
