Thoughts on This?

"Evangelicalism...is all about power: how to get it, how to use it, how to build big churches, how to have political influence. I think that's the opposite of what Jesus is all about. The primary question of pastors ought to be the primary question of Jesus: 'What can I do to serve you?'
And the church's primary question of the world around them ought to be, 'What can we do to serve you?' It's a very radical reshaping of the image of what ministry is.
Practically speaking, I often tell people, 'Find out what church growth is telling you to do, and then do the opposite.'"
