Man and his church are experiencing a change similar to man and his business. On the surface of things, a man's church relations may seem to make little difference. But that is not true. If the surface waves are less responsive to a man's entering church, the difference is more than compensated by the stirring of deeper currents.

Everything one person does effects others. Today's complex life causes many personal acts to penetrate several thicknesses of humanity.

The church is the one institution of all humanity. And so long as you stay away there will always be one part of the institution missing a vacant place which no person in the world but you can fill. It does matter much whether you are present or absent.
