"The organic character of the Christian life must come to expression in the form of organized Christian communal activity in areas other than the institutional church (this is the Organic Church)…Christians who go out into their various vocations do so neither as direct emissaries of the institutional church nor as mere individual believers…Christian social, cultural, and political action does not flow directly from the structures and authorities of the church, but comes to expression organically in the various spheres of life as believers live out the faith and spirituality that develops and is nurtured in the church’s worship and discipline."
