When it comes to church it's so easy (and tempting) to criticize. Honestly, there's lots to criticize - it's kind of low-hanging fruit. However, when we remember that the organizing principle of the church is that we're a group of imperfect people who are being remodeled by Christ, it changes things. It's kind of silly to point out all the unfinished parts of a home that is being built. In the same way, it's counterproductive to walk through the church with a negative, cynical mindset. Instead, as the church, we're called to pick up tools and build this thing!
