When the Church Gets Long in the Tooth


Douglas Wilson posted this on Blog & Mablog this morning:


"'For example, the biblical pattern of evangelism was not at all like our modern method of picking off the devil's stragglers, but rather a pattern of bringing the good news to household after household' (Mother Kirk, p. 236)."


I couldn't help but think that the reason the church only goes after stragglers now is that she's just not as quick on her feet as she used to be.
