“The ordinary group of worshipping Christians,
as the preacher sees them from the pulpit,
does not look like a collection of very joyful people,
in fact, they look on the whole
rather sad, tired, depressed people.
It is certain that such people
will never win the world for Christ...
It is no use trying to pretend:
we may speak of joy and preach about it:
but, unless we really have the joy
of Christ in our hearts and manifest it,
our words will carry no conviction to our hearers.”
- S. Neill
