I thought Danny’s post was right on the money. See what he says over at his blog about here. Here is an excerpt,
“Rediscover our identity. We need to become less institutionalized and more personal. The first church in Acts had few institutional trappings. They engaged people where they were. Too often today the church is seen as detached from people- operating from a institutional mindset of protectionism, fear and judgmentalism. To erase the erosion we have to remove such barriers and become relevant in individual lives again. Our identity should be wrapped up in Christ’s thinking- not institutional thinking.”
