“The outward journey is not to be confused with the way of the crowd. Those on an outward journey can see the neighbor. Their world includes the technological age, the modern metropolis. They are concerned with shaping the church for responsible involvement. While it is a crucial mistake to assume that churches can be on an outward journey without being on an inward one, it is equally disastrous to assume that one can make the journey inward without taking the journey outward.”
