'fortress church'



“A frightening proportion of our churches are trapped by… the 'fortress church' mentality. That mentality is made up of attitudes that may be conscious or unconscious: 'Let them come to us! Our doors are open.' 'We come to church to have our needs met, to escape the cold, cruel world.' But there are biblical truths that knock flat the walls of our fortress. Every member is a minister. Every member has kingdom power to destroy strongholds. Through us Jesus continues to immerses himself in the needs of the world.” Tim Keller
"And he said to them, 'Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation.'"  Mark 16:15
