I want to zoom in on a few words from the massive Bonhoeffer quote posted previously.

Rich Wyld was the first person to tell me this in September 2009 and people have been reminding me of it regularly since then.

He who loves his dream of a community more than the Christian community itself becomes a destroyer of the latter, even though his personal intentions may be ever so honest and earnest and sacrificial.

The full section can be read here.

Thanks to Rich, Stephen, Freeman, Togwell, and everyone who keeps reminding me about this.
