Sometimes church grows right in front of your eyes. For example:
• A goals committee in a branch church had been trying to define a proper objective for their church to work together on. They met for months. But they couldn't agree. At every meeting people took opposing sides. The result was more wrangling than church.
Several members of the committee were persistently at work on a metaphysical basis. Finally at one meeting a member spoke openly about a healing he had had from seeing the quiet, Christian approach of one of his fellow committee members. It brought a visible change—a warming, a freeing.
