Wise Quotes:
“Let him who is not in the community beware of being alone. Into the community you were called-the call was not meant for you alone; in the community of the called you bear your cross, you struggle, you pray. You are not alone even in death and on the last Day, you will be only one of the great congregation of Jesus Christ.
-Dietrich Bonhoffer, Life Together
“Healthy spiritual growth requires the presence of the other—the brother, the sister, the pastor, the teacher. A private, proudly isolated life cannot grow. The two or three who gather together in Christ’s name keep each other sane. Spiritual growth cannot take place in isolation. It is not a private thing.”
--Eugene Peterson
