Church: Hindrance or Help to Faith?
Church: Hindrance or Help to Faith?
This week's guest In Conversation with Noel Cheer on Triangle Television, Rinny Westra, has travelled the path of an increasing number of clergy. He initially experienced what is usually termed a "call" to be a Christian minister of religion, only to eventually experience a disillusionment about the way in which religious institutions themselves seem to get in the way of the compassion and integrity that they feel is the true heart of Christianity. New Zealand has several such "renegade" figures who take the institutional church to be as much a hindrance as a help to the exercise of faith.
