mil doe* my church mean to f Perhaps you have never real 1 lough’ of this question per V however It is a question church member should stop ask himself. Am I helping my to meet the needs of other and its community? Is ■charch more than a lovely wealth, large membership, and a popular minister? As fine as these may be, they are not enough to meet the needs for this present time and future ge nerations . If our churches are to be exam ples of the early church, we must rediscover our real selves and re veal to the world the true per sonality of Ood. Too many of us wear religious cloaks, we wrap them gently about us on Sunday morning and tuck them neatly » way on Sunday evening tor the remainder of the week. We do not take the time tor special study, meditation, and prayer, before teaching or preach ing. Many teachers go into their class departments each Sunday with unprepared lessons to teach cur future generation about God. We ministers expect our congre gations to attend faithfully each week to hear us deliver a few dry morsels we hare collected very hurriedly during the Saturday evening rush. Is it any wonder much of our present day preach ing is trival, trite, and feeble. We make all sorts of faults and foi bles i nour delivery of a supposed ly gosple sermond. Our messages have become humdrum, vague, and rambling, with no clear cut point. We fail t ospeak with authority and power, our sermons cut more and more to make it easy on the congregation. Toned down to please the people rather than God. In recent years I have sensed a timi dity about stressing the harder demands of Christian religion in action. We fear to face our congrega tions with a “take up your cross daily and follow me” gosple and therefore have attracted to our churchs the timid, soft and the VYlote Socisdty AT CAMP KANATA Charles Parrish, son of Mr. and Mrs. Oilmer Parrish; Sher wood Jemlgan, son of Mr. and Mrs. Harold Jemlgan; and Biili Boyette, son of Mr and Mrs. Ed Boyette hare returned home aft er spending two weeks at Camp Kanata, a camp sponsored by the Durham YMCA near Wake For NEPHEW VISITS Edward Armstrong of Fairfield is spending this week with his aunt, Mrs. Fred Alexander, VISITS AT BEACH Sgt and Mrs. Norbert Warren visited Mr. and Mrs. Billy War ren at their cottage at Topsail Beach last week unadventurous, resulting in the cause of many confused and dl satisfied churches in our commu * nities. !
