The Rev. Dr. Damon Williams: What the Church Needs
The Rev. Dr. Damon Williams (other)As part of Day1's Young Leaders of the Church Series, the Rev. Dr. Damon P. Williams offers this commentary on the future of the church:
Personally, I define 'the church' not as a building but rather as a people who share a common faith in Jesus Christ. And so the church matters deeply to me for several reasons. First, the body of believers has a mission from God to help all people identify their purpose and answer that proverbial question of 'What on earth am I here for?' And this is important, because after a life filled with academic pursuits, professional pursuits, and personal pursuits, many of us are left unfulfilled truly seeking purpose. So I think the church has a calling to aid in that pursuit of purpose for all people. And, secondly, the church matters because we have been called by God to replicate God's love to all throughout the world. And in a world with so much darkness, cruelty, and war, a little light from God's love, shown by God's church, is not only much welcomed, but also much needed.
