Famous quotes containing the words church of and/or church:
“When the Church of Jesus
Shuts its outer door,
Lest the roar of traffic
Drown the voice of prayer:
May our prayers, Lord, make us
Ten times more aware
That the world we banish
Is our Christian care.”

“It’s better to sit in the bar and think of church than to sit in church and to think of the bar.”
