More from Andy Crouch

To live as an exile, following Daniel's example, requires us to ask of every feature of our culture, "Is this important?" It requires us to ask that question as searchingly of our daily habits as of institutions and philosophies. I fear that American Christians have too little practice in posing these questions.

And I would add, we are deathly afraid, we Christians, of asking these questions of our churches.
