Small church blues

Vera Conway

I wonder if the plight of so many small, Christian churches and fellowships is at all disturbing to the consciences of Christians today as they drive past with scarcely a glance in their direction on their way to something better.

We all know of church buildings in our neighbourhoods that have been sold off for storage purposes, sold to cult members or those of other religions, or to developers, and we comfort ourselves with the knowledge that the place was decaying and about to close anyway, so it doesn’t matter; life has to move on.
