Suffer the Children

Babies in church are not a distraction.

Suffer the children to come.

Only consumer churches need worry —

the babies and the ASN

might pull your eyes from the product,

the show.

But a church that looks like the early church

is for the big and the small,

and gathers in strange places:

the wilderness,

ordinary houses,

random temples,

altars to an unknown God

where ecumenical teaching moments happen.

Because here He is.

Whatsoever you do to the least of these,

you do to Him.
