Imperfect as it is, it is the dearest place on earth to us … for the church is not an institution for perfect people, but a sanctuary for sinners saved by grace, who, though they are saved, are sinners still, and need all the help they can derive from the sympathy and guidance of their fellow believers. The church is the nursery for God’s weak children, where they are nourished and grow strong. It is the fold for Christ’s sheep, the home for Christ’s family.1

We come to Jesus just as we are, or we don’t come to Him at all. The good news is He doesn’t care what kind of shoes you’re wearing, and He doesn’t mind if you spill your coffee.
