Fire in our hearts - The Jesus Army

FIRE IN OUR HEARTSThis field of ministry is costly, intensive and a legal and moralminefield.My own position is one of amusement when I hear of theJesus Army being criticised and berated. It often comes fromthose whose churches remain much the same as they wereten years ago, have rarely done anything controversial andhave little or no ministry to the untouchables.We should let such institutional Christianity, unwilling tochange, die in peace. In its place we need fresh, vibrant andspiritual movements, in line with the word of God. The JesusArmy is such a movement.Such networks are the main hope for Europe. The future ofthe church will consist of groups that are small enough tocare but are large enough to celebrate and influence our culture.The Jesus Army has an important part in that future.Gerald CoatesSpeaker, author, broadcaster, Team Leader of Pioneer12
