In terms of the goal, we certainly all have a long way to go. Personal renewal is the foundation. That means their coming to a personal faith in Jesus Christ, knowing Him as Savior, Lord, and Baptizer in the Holy Spirit. The task of helping people in the Church come into a personal, living relationship with Jesus Christ might take years. But before it is accomplished, you do not have much of a foundation to build on.
Conversion is first base.
You are out every time. I used to think that if everybody in our Church had a certain spiritual experience all our troubles would be over. I think differently now. We need differences in temperament, gifting, background, and experience. In fact, the more diversity we can bring together, the greater the richness the Church will have, so long as everything is founded on Christ and His Word, and people are united in worshipping and serving Him.
