"It is a hard lesson, but we are learning that the primary task of the church is to see God at work in the world and to celebrate what we see God doing. It is not to build, grow, or extend the kingdom of God—that is God's work. Our job is to see what is, to name it, and to recognize God at work in it." Joel Van Dyke and Kris Rocke
Reading the Bible through the eyes of outsiders can awaken the church from numbness.
