“I’ve heard you say that before: ‘I seek the brethren.’ But what then?” “You listen.”
“The work of the church is not survival. She exists to fulfill the Great Commission. Her work is making disciples of all nations.”

“Duty before self-preservation—that is a very important principle in Scripture. Do you remember when David confronted Goliath? He said that when a lion or bear attacked his father’s sheep, he went after it and killed it and rescued the sheep.

“A group is the right size, I would guess, when each member can pray every day for every other member, individually and by name, interceding for his personal needs as well as for the success of a particular mission. But what is to prevent twenty, fifty, one hundred such groups from springing up wherever the call is heard—each obedient to its own particular genius, each working in its different way for the coming of the one Kingdom.
