Even if for some reason you don't feel the need to receive the Sacrament, you should have your eye on your brothers and sisters who may be in desperate need of it. There are many ways our American individualism threatens the Christian community. You've put your finger on an important one.

What was at stake wasn't our own spiritual growth or the other selfish desires that people often cite as reasons for going to church, but the body of Christ at large. More importantly the ability of the body of Christ to have an impact in this generation. If we were to be counted, we knew what side we wanted to be counted on.Christopher Newgenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15488988436763076884noreply@blogger.com
