To: Arthur Wildfire! March

I am wary of “Christianity with big institutional support.” This will gradually decay away to become, at best, a side dish of faith in Christ with a main dish of institutionalism. It’s just too easy, and if the history of the church hasn’t taught us that, we have not been looking. Christian communities quickly hit a nadir as long as government control was embroiled. The privatization of worship allowed it to be freewill rather than political, unleashing godly spiritual power.

We need to get on our knees, yet not before a mob of public opinion, but rather privately before God Almighty. This in turn will bring power that will lift up the rest.

I’ll gladly do without the window dressing. Like Nike says, just do it in the way that always counted. Prayer by prayer, message by message, knee by knee, church by church, repentance by repentance.
