Does this description of our modern church resonate with anyone else? Is it possible that things have become increasingly worse since Tozer wrote about his observations?
By A.W. Tozer, from his book "God Tells the Man Who Cares"
"In the majority of our meetings there is scarcely a trace of reverent thought, no recognition of the unity of the body, little sense of the divine presence, no moment of stillness, no solemnity, no wonder, no holy fear. But so often there is a dull or a breezy song leader full of awkward jokes, as well as a chairman announcing each "number" with the old radio continuity patter in an effort to make everything hang together."
"The whole Christian family stands desperately in need of a restoration of penitence, humility and tears. May God send them soon."
