In this excerpt from Colson’s Being the Body, Colson recognizes that a very important aspect of the early church has been lost in today’s Christians: character as a whole. “The church’s role in the world is not a series of independent items on an action checklist. Instead, the church’s role (what it does) is dependent on its character (what it is) as a community of believers.”
“If the church is the Body, the holy presence of Christ in the world, its most fundamental task is to build communities of holy people who are just like Jesus. And the priority of those communities is to disciple men and women to maturity in Him and then to equip them to live their faith in every aspect of life and in every part of the world.”
