I am the leader of a small church full of affluent, competent people who generally have a lot of money but not a lot of time. The rich and poor live side by side in our area – and I feel it’s a fairly basic tenet of being a worshipping community together that we meet some of the needs of those around us.
I became a Christian as an adult ten years ago. My family love and take an interest in me but keep faith at arms’ length which I find very frustrating. I feel like a bad Christian because I don’t evangelise to them.
