Thoughts on ministry

Eldest daughter shares some good thoughts and questions about ministry:

I think that instead of trying to get lost people into the church, why not train the Christians inside the church to go get ’em, share the Truth with them outside the church, and then bring them in whenever they are saved? I haven’t done much research on this, but did the early church gatherings ever involve lost people? Not to say that I would say that we should block them out, of course, or make it exclusive, but I think that maybe we’ve gotten to the point where we consider inviting our friends to church witnessing to them, trusting that the pastor will share the Truth with them. At least I know that I’ve felt that way before. Acts does say that the number of people who were being saved were being added to them every day, but what if that means that the Church – the body of Christ – was a light, and took to the world the Love, Hope and Faith.
