Jesus famously declared: ‘It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners’ (Mark 2:17).
It raises an interesting question about our churches – perhaps you have come across it before – ‘Which do our churches most resemble: a group of people waiting for a job interview or those waiting in a doctor’s surgery?’
Are we more like people intent on impressing a prospective new employer, or those waiting to get help from a doctor? The more you reflect on the question, the more challenging it becomes.
