Erwin McManus Church Quotations

You can plant a church and grow a church. That's not that hard to do, but it's harder to be a viable source of transformation in a city or your time or space.

The church is not here to meet our needs. We are the church here to meet the needs of the world.

The church must acclimate to a changing world, or she will destine herself to irrelevance or even extinction. ...One of those dramatic changes in our environment is the shift from words to images. To do church in a way that is entirely text driven is the kiss of death.

Churches all over the country have decided they love their traditions more than their children.

The church does not exist for us. We are the church, and we exist for the world.
