Lately, I’ve heard several people (outside the church) say that the “Church doesn’t/can’t relate to the world.” Maybe it’s because we’ve lost sight of the foundation for that relationship. Maybe if the Church/church began to take their conversion/call seriously and lived the mission, the Church would relate.
