If you read this blog very much you’ve noticed that I link a lot to Tim Keller. It seems like every time I come across something from him, it always makes me think. I came across this blog entry today from him and thought it would be great food for thought. No excerpts below, you just need to read the whole thing.

Great post Tim.
“A movement that refuses to take on some organizational characteristics – authority, tradition, unity of belief, and quality control — will fragment and dissipate. A movement that does not also resist the inevitable tendency toward complete institutionalization will lose its vitality and effectiveness as well. The job of the movement leader is to steer the ship safely between these two opposite perils.”
