House Churches

Famous quotes containing the words house and/or churches:

    This is the rat
    That ate the malt
    That lay in the house that Jack built.
    Mother Goose (fl. 17th–18th century. The House That Jack Built (l. 4–6)

    Here, the churches seemed to shrink away into eroding corners. They seem to have ceased to be essential parts of American life. They no longer give life. It is the huge buildings of commerce and trade which now align the people to attention. These in their massive manner of steel and stone say, Come unto me all ye who labour, and we will give you work.
    Sean O’Casey (1884–1964)
