“These days, people can get good teaching, wonderful music, and excellent writing, whether through iPods, TV, or online. They learn to shop around and pick and choose. Then they expect the same high quality in their local church. A generation ago, the average person learned to accept his home pastor and was faithful to his local church. But now, people’s appetites for excellence have been heightened.”
–Bryan Wilkerson is the senior pastor of Grace Chapel in Lexington, Massachusetts. Taken from “5 Kinds of Christians” in the Fall 2007 issue of Leadership journal.
