Enemy of the Church

The path into the future is through the past. ...the enemy of the church is not primarily structural or cultural, whether in the form of postmodernity or secularization, but in "a churchmanship that refuses to deploy its doctrinal, theological and sacramental resources for the fight. The nature of the crisis is theological amnesia concerning the dogmatic core of historic and evangelical Christianity, to which the answer... is recovery of the classical practices of the church as a way of reconnecting with the gospel."

Sam Storms, Convergence, p. 162
