The Centrality of the Church

John Stott writes this piercing quote concerning the church's place and role in our lives.

"If the church is central to God's purpose, as seen in both history and the gospel, it must surely also be central to our lives. How can we take lightly what God takes so seriously? How dare we push to the circumference what God has placed at the center?"

-John Stott
