Called to Cry and Die

"To call a local church into the mission of Jesus is to call its members into two behaviors. First we cry. Then we die. We let our hearts be broken with the things that break the heart of God. Then we die to the comfortable patterns of life that insulate us emotionally and geographically from those for whom Christ died." ~ Ben Campbell Johnson and Glenn McDonald (Imagining a Church in the Spirit)
