Churches As Playgrounds

People would seem to think, sometimes, that Churches are playgrounds for disruptive or (yes) illegal behaviour. After all, one can expect to be permitted such latitude in a Church -- Churches and ministers pussy-foot around such things. My own approach has developed through many years of experience. In summary, it is to approach such problems thoughtfully, prayerfully, and reasonably -- and not to touch them alone -- yet to deal with disruptive or illegal behaviour decisively and firmly. There is no room for it in the Church. OBSERVATION: The Church has a great mission, which should not be reduced to less.
