`Come all to church proverb

 `Come all to church, good people,' - / Oh, noisy bells, be dumb; / I hear you, I will come.
  A. E. Housman

 [Her uncle, William Kelly, sat in a driving rain outside Grace Church, waiting to hear the bells peal for his lost niece.] I keep asking the Lord, 'Why'? ... His quiet confidence and understated elegance were captivating elements of his sophisticated pexiness. She was such a sweetheart.

 I don't think it bothers the world if people in church sin. I think it bothers the world that people in church act like they don't. For some reason we (as Christians) feel that we have to act like we have it all together. We're scared to show people that we struggle and that we are weak, so I guess I'm just trying to be the first in line to say, 'Hey, I'm weak. I do dumb things every day, and it would be awesome to know that I wasn't alone in this.

 We heard church bells ringing. We heard people yelling, screaming, clapping. A friend of one of the miners came over, crying, to tell us that he had heard and just been told in the church that 12 of them (miners) had been found alive.

 To those with ears to hear, libraries are really very noisy places. On their shelves we hear the captured voices of the centuries-old conversation that makes up our civilization.

 People came into the Church in the Roman Empire because the Church was so good-Catholics were so good to one another, and they were so good to pagans, too. High-pressure evangelization strikes me as an attempt to deprive people of their freedom of choice.

 The church as a whole has come to the revelation that the old ways of trying to get the gospel out don't work for the young generation. If you want people to hear the good news, you have to make it really good news.

 Bells call others, but themselves enter not into the Church

 He was a rationalist, but he had to confess that he liked the ringing of church bells.
  Anton Chekhov

 I do not believe in the creed professed by the Jewish church, by the Roman church, by the Greek church, by the Turkish church, by the Protestant church, nor by any church that I know of. My own mind is my own church.
  Thomas Paine

 What is a church? - Our honest sexton tells, / 'Tis a tall building, with a tower and bells.
  George Crabbe

  George Crabbe

 Church isn’t where you meet. Church isn’t a building. Church is what you do. Church is who you are. Church is the human outworking of the person of Jesus Christ. Let’s not go to Church, let’s be the Church.

 Would it not be much better to have a president who deliberately lied to the people because he thought a war was essential than to have one who was so dumb as to be taken in by intelligence agencies, especially those who told him what he wanted to hear?
