Many people think the church's greatest problem is the world outside.

Immoral.

Godless.

Rebellious.

Hostile.

But Vance Havner saw a far greater tragedy.

He saw the world inside the church.

"The tragedy of our day is not that the church is in the world, but that the world is in the church."

That's the difference between influence and infection.

The church was called to transform the culture.

Instead, too often, the culture transforms the church.

We adopt its values.

We chase its comforts.

We mimic its methods.

We crave its approval.

The world doesn't need a church that looks like it.

It needs a church that looks like Christ.

The greatest danger isn't persecution.

It's compromise.

The question isn't whether the church is influencing the world.

The question is:

Is the world influencing the church?
