the church in its most local setting

Yesterday's daily 'Verse & Voice' email from the Sojourners contained the following thought-provoking quote:-

The Christian faith for most people is not communicated by doctrinal pronouncements ... but by what goes on in the church in its most local setting. It is here, in the church down the street, that people are caught up in the Gospel promise -- or are turned away. (James C. Fenhagen, from his book Mutual Ministry)

I am on holiday at the moment and will be heading to Scotland early next week and then back down the M6 to visit the family.
