deep church quote

I liked this quote:

I wonder if sometimes, in our efforts to be authentic in our engagement with church, we might be looking for and even attempting to generate a collective spirit that is made up of the stuff of personal preference.

    Hey there Justin. Great quote. I went to the Deep Church blog and read the whole article - very thought provoking. I too, wonder how much of our rumination over what “should be” or “what is more effective” in church ministry is influenced by our own personal preferences and bias. I think it is difficult to separate our own prejudice and be truly objective when making decisions about church life, culture and direction. I think if we would be honest there is a lot more of the previous going on than we would admit. That being said, it could be that God has wired each of us which certain unique perspectives and biases for the purpose of influencing the direction of decisions being made. Ciao
