In so many words Oswald Chambers wrote that the sole value of a Bible college is that Jesus can help himself to a student; the college has no other value. The same thing can be applied to the church. As an organization the church has no value if it isn’t enabling Jesus to help himself to people. That must be modeled in church leadership. The desire of church leaders to be taken captive by Christ so we live and move and have our being in Jesus keeps the church from a mission of simply keeping the doors open.
