Freedom & Emptiness

It is not enough to go to church, says the Rev. Colbert S. Cartwright of the First Christian Church in Lynchburg, Va. --a man ought to know why he is going. He asked each member of his congregation to think this over, then mail him a letter summing up the results. Sample reasons: P: "I go to church because I want to be identified with an institution that stands for freedom of the mind and spirit . . . that has brought light into the world and uplifted men through the ages." P: "I feel God's presence in the music, the sermon, and in partaking of the Lord's Supper ... I could not worship regularly at home or elsewhere and gain the fellowship of worship I find at church." P:"I go . . . because when I don't, I have an emptiness and restlessness inside me."
