Okay, Everybody! Chime in on this quote!

From N.T. Wright in The Challenge of Jesus

"It has far too often been assumed that church leaders stand above the nitty-gritty of biblical, and theological study; they have done all that, we implicitly suppose, before they come to office, and now they simply have to work out the 'implications.' They find themselves spending countless hours at their desks running the church business, raising money or working at dozens of other tasks, rather than poring over their foundation documents and enquiring ever more closely about the Jesus whom they are supposed to be following and teaching others to follow. I believe, to the contrary, that each generation has to wrestle afresh with the question of Jesus, not least it's Biblical roots if it is to be truly the church at all--not that we should engage in abstract dogmatics to the detriment of our engagement with the world, but that we should discover more and more of who Jesus was and is, precisely in order to be equipped to engage with the world that he came to save. And this is a task for the whole church, especially those appointed to leadership and teaching roles within it."

Okay...
