The church may close, but Christ is Risen!
by George Bailey. (Extract from his post to Theology everywhere)
“The church is not the primary purpose the gospel. The purpose is the transformation of individuals, of communities, of humanity and of the whole creation – and the church is the gathering of those who have been integrated into this purpose, called together as a sign of that purpose being realized, and in order to join in as best we can with this work of God in Christ and through the Spirit. If one such gathering ceases to meet it is not the end of the overall purpose, not the failure of the mission, because the mission is held by God and not by the church.”
