Institutional Church Day 126
Modern men and women in their hyper-activity have forgotten why they have their being. An eastern mystic comments on our western society, "they have the know how, but do they have the know why?" Our churches continue to perform the same religious things like services, committees, renting space and raising funds because they always have, but do they know why?
No one respects or listens to the institutional church anymore. It is generally ridiculed in the media. Television portrays clergy as bumbling eggheads or as Bible thumping extremists out of touch with society's needs. The institutional church reacts by diluting its standards to accommodate others. Instead of pacifying its critics this only stimulates further erosion.
