"People are longing to rediscover true community. We have had enough of loneliness, independence, and competition." Jean Vanier (as quoted in Larry Crabb, The Safest Place on Earth, Word, 1999, 121.)

"...entering the the pseudo-communal age of electronic communication, the virtual society will need the same age-old challenge as feudalism, aristocracy or democracy have needed in previous societies. Spirituality can never be individual, for it implies 'the fellowship of the Holy Spirit.' Christian Spirituality implies further that Christ is its center and His Body its circumference." James Houston (unpublished foreword to Journey Conference, Biola University, 1995)
