“To people who maintain a separation from many pleasures of society, Christian fellowship becomes pleasure. To those who don’t attend the drama of the theater, the beauty of the ordinances, crowds of worshippers, and powerful preaching are drama enough. To those who don’t belong to secret societies, the church becomes the center of their lives, and invites their undivided loyalty. To people who don’t go to war, mutual aid, sharing of Christian love, and the peace of Christ are their theme. To people who don’t have radio and television, the Bible has a central part in their lives and affections”
(Quoted by Donald Kraybill in On the Backroad to Heaven, Pg. 160-161,)
