My fear/concern is that this quote from the article fits the modern Church quite well: "It is the nature of adolescents to believe that authentic reality begins with themselves, and that what long preceded them is irrelevant.” Substitute "adolescents" with "church leaders desperate to keep up with culture" and you have the mindset with which an increasing number of Christians set out to reach people via "relevant" ministry methods. Yikes. Thanks for the link! My fear/concern is that this quote from the article fits the modern Church quite well:
