Reminds me of the story of a preacher who told another he’d had the greatest revival in his church’s history.
the other preacher said, “How did it go? How many did you add?”
The first replied: “Oh, no. You don’t understand. We LOST 500 people.”
Platt in Radical talks about how Jesus was always weeding -people out and building a “mini church” instead of a mega-church as the one he once pastored.

Sitting in a church pew makes you a Christian as much as sitting in a garage makes you a car.
