What's "next" in church these days?

Attenders looking for the “next” must realize that a church, no matter how innovative, is not the provider of spiritual formation. Individuals must dig deep into the core disciplines of the faith which have been with us for centuries and own their own spiritual development through prayer and study, fasting and retreats, worship and solitude.

This quote comes from a thought provoking article called "The Next, Next Church" by James Emery White. I think it has some good application to our church and to each individual follower of Christ. Check it out!
