"A healthy church is one in which we seek to stay connected with God by seeking to connect others with God; one in which we 'win God' by converting one another, and we convert one another by our truthful awareness of frailty. And a church that is living in such a way is the only church that will have anything different to say to the world; how deeply depressing if all the church offered were new and better ways to succeed at the expense of others, reinstating the scapegoat mechanisms that the cross of Christ should have exploded once and for all."
Rowan Williams in Silence and Honey Cakes: The Wisdom of the Desert
