i've been reading "The Barbarian Way" lately and it has peaked my interest. it raised a question in my head though. how is a church supposed to keep the raw, powerful, all consuming call to sacrifice everything for Christ, yet still stay relevant and seem welcoming to seekers?
one side enables personal spiritual growth, while the other raises numbers to the kingdom. its a delicate balance and definitely hard to find.

Finding balance in life is just as hard. It is a constant change, every day, every moment is a balancing act.
yes it all balance. But you cant compromise that call to live for Christ no matter what.
Think about how Jesus lived. He lived for God and for his calling yet he wellcomed all sinners to repentance.
We are in the world but not part of it. We wellcome others to our church for repentance and salvation.
hope this gave you more ideas...
God bless,
Jesse
the thing about being completely focused on only numbers is that you either have too many or not enough... you're focus has to be something else
