mission

"The impact of church organizations in service to society is “too far below what is reasonable and possible with their available resources, human and material."
Robert Greenleaf, Servant Leadership
"One of the ironies we’re beginning to see is that… even the world wants the church to be the church. It is the church that doesn’t want to be the church. That’s the core problem.”
Warren Cole Smith, A Lover’s Quarrel with the Evangelical Church

Distribution of resources is evidence of a church’s mission. Period.
