As long as our churches are places where we struggle to sustain an hour or two of public worship per week, with “real life” only minimally affected by it, we will be like a bunch of vaguely religious cows in a field, mooing on Sunday mornings and chewing the cud the rest of the time. But if we really worked at trying to be for our world what the apostles were for their Jewish world, things might change!
