A strong church

BETTY LEWIS HAUSRATH

When I was in a junior symphony years ago, the director informed us that "an orchestra is only as good as its poorest player." I've sometimes wondered: Is a church only as good as its weakest member?

That depends. If we think of church as merely a human organization, having its source in mortals, located in a physical place, then perhaps our church might be thought to be only as good as its weakest member. What is needed is a change of viewpoint.
