For the last five years: Gradually the excitement faded and John transitioned into the second phase of 1989 Shortfall $127,670.00 his spiritual journey which lasted 14 years. He described this phase as the "be the 1990 Shortfall $ 52,102.00 good Christian" stage. During this time he did all the things that good Christians 1991 Shortfall $ 27,893.00 do. He studied the Bible, prayed, and witnessed to others about his faith. He even 1992 Shortfall $ 47,678.00 went to seminary to get a theological education and then entered the ministry. 1993 NO SHORTFALL!!! And he was quite successful in his ministry endeavor. Hendricks describes John's ministry as "a supernova of spiritual light and life" that affected countless people's lives.

4 5 Despite this success, however, the luster of John's ministry began to dim and was Bible study. One was theological understanding. And there were many many he wanted to stretch himself and be more creative so he decided to plant a church more. They were dead-end streets not because they were wrong in and of them based on a contemporary worship style. The plant was successful and in a few selves; they were dead-end streets because they had become substitutes for a years a large work had developed. John describes his ministry at this time: real, intimate relationship with Jesus Christ. As John came to realize: I was preaching and teaching, counseling, working with vision, boards, com So for the better part of my Christian life, I was moving from bandwagon to mittees. I was doing all the things that I loved to do, that I felt I was created bandwagon, from approach to approach. And finally what happened was to do. I had a wonderful group to work with. I mean, we were young, we that God in His mercy swept them all aside and none of them made any were flexible, we were creative. sense any more.

But in the midst of this seemingly great success John entered the third phase John knew that something was changing in him but he wasn't sure what it of his spiritual journey—disillusionment. Even while John was doing all the things was. He remained rather perplexed for a couple of months. Then, one day in a he loved to do, he found that he began to feel an emptiness in his soul. Despite his bookstore John noticed a book by Henri Nouwen entitled The Way of the Heart. outward success, despite the fact that he was well suited for the tasks at hand, When he pulled the book off the shelf and noticed the cover had a picture of blue John was dying on the inside. As Hendricks writes: sky and pink rocks and that it was subtitled Desert Spirituality and Contempo rary Ministry he said, "Give me a break." He thought this must be pretty flaky So despite a burgeoning church, John felt the bottom falling out of his life stuff. Just as he was about to put the book back on the shelf he heard an inner spiritually. He felt himself drowning in emptiness and loneliness. He began voice say, "Buy the book, John." John bought the book. And through His servant grasping for something to hold onto. (John said) "I tried everything I knew Henri Nouwen, Jesus taught His servant John the importance of communing with to deal with it. You know, I had learned in the Christian life that you have Him; of spending time with Him in solitude, silence, and prayer. John describes your ups and downs. The down times, you ride them out, or you learn some it: of the tricks of the trade: if you're feeling depressed, despondent—pray more, read the Bible more, spend more time with Christ and, get a change of pace....

So I started setting aside two- and three-hour blocks of time in prayer - not to keep prayer notebooks and agonize in inter This spiritual downward spiral continued until John entered the fourth phase of his spiritual journey—a state of paralysis. In this state, John's vision and en cessory prayer, but to get before God and be quiet, to be open and see what happens." ergy were completely exhausted. He was running on autopilot. It was during this period of paralysis that John reached the turning point in his spiritual life. In a Well, something did happen. In those times of solitude, sileirce, and listen dream he saw himself wandering down streets lined with skyscrapers. However, ing Jesus began speaking to John who was shocked by the experience and even each street he traveled down turned into a dead end.

He left his church, loaded up his belongings, moved to a secluded area, words: and spent one year in quiet solitude with Jesus. Did anything change in that year? Oh yes!

And this is what He said: "Have you My whole view of the Christian life shifted about a hundred and eighty de had enough? Have you had enough of the dead-end streets? Don't you un grees.

Now at that point, I sensed that something was happening. I didn't know Developing an intimacy with Jesus in seclusion is one thing.

But to speak for peace because Jesus in phasizes intimacy with the Lord and making one's relationship with Christ the communion has whispered in our heart, "I love you—and I love my enemies. priority of one's life. He has continued in this ministry for the last eight years. And as I love, so are you to love," then there is power in the testimony of peace I share John's story with you for several reasons. First of all, he has a very because our words and our life begin to harmonize. Quakerly testimony. It's obvious to me that John is a Quaker; he just doesn't Simplicity is another wonderful Quaker distinctive. But is simplicity exter know it. It seems he has discovered our most important Quaker distinctive. As nal or internal? Merely following an external historical form leads to wearing Quakers we often like to talk about our distinctives, those characteristics that are Quaker gray—made out of silk. True simplicity comes when in communion Jesus uniquely Quaker. As I consider all our distinctives from the past to the present, whispers, "Your life consists of more than food or clothing. Don't put your con for me the predominant distinctive, the crucial truth and experience that Quakers fidence in things but live simply so that you may help others who are less fortu bring to evangelical Christianity is that each individual can know Jesus Christ nate."

Fox searched Paul wrote to the Romans that we are predestined to become conformed into through all the baggage and externals of Christianity and found only empty le the image of the Son. It is God's will that we grow to be more like Jesus with each galism and busyness. And eventually he, too, came to that moment of exhausted passing day. It is in communion with Christ that we place ourselves in His hands silence finally to hear Christ whisper, "there is only one who can speak to thy so that He can bring this transformation about. condition." John discovered the essence of Fox's testimony that Jesus Christ is This understanding is vital to our Christian walk. We need to understand that our present teacher, healer, comforter, and guide. each person enters the Christian life from a different point. In terms of physical Pastor John's testimony teaches another critical lesson. When he began ex maturity some enter as children, some as youth, some as adults. All of us bring periencing dryness in his soul, John applied the normal Christian prescription. our own particular baggage as we enter this life. Some of us enter in dragging a John said he had learned "the tricks of the trade: if you're feeling depressed, load of unforgiveness behind us. We're predisposed to harbor grudges. Others despondent—pray more, read the Bible more, spend more time with Christ. He carry anger and bitterness from real or perceived harm in the past. Many of us did all that and yet his dryness increased. As Christians we know that spiritual bring addictions into this life; habits that are stronger than our will power that communion cannot be experienced apart from the spiritual disciplines, things weaken our spiritual life. Each of us has experienced different things in our life like prayer, study, meditation. But John shows that it is possible to practice the prior to coming to Christ. Each of us has been wounded in life. Sometimes other disciplines and still not experience communion. people have hurt us deeply through physical or psychological abuse; sometimes So what is the difference between two people both of whom are practicing just through thoughtlessness. Sometimes we have wounded ourselves as we have the spiritual disciplines but one is communing with Jesus and the other is not? made unwise decisions and taken unwise actions in life. Each of us comes into The difference between the two is a turning of the heart. One enters into prayer, the Christian life with a different knowledge base. Some are very knowledgeable study, and meditation through duty; the other through desire. One checks quiet of the Scripture. Others don't know the difference between the Old Testament time" off his or her list for the day; the other caresses the time alone with Jesus and the New. and leaves it reluctantly to enter a busy world. It is the difference between ritual So you see, each of us enters the Christian life with unique needs. No two of and relationship; between habit and passion. us carry exactly the same burdens, suffer exactly the same hurts, or lack exactly John says his Christian life shifted 180 degrees as his heart turned from the same knowledge. And because these are things of the heart, there is only one practicing communion through duty to experiencing communion through desire. person who can see and address our specific needs and that person is Jesus Christ. He moved away from the Martha syndrome to the Mary syndrome. Listen to the It is He who removes our burdens and lightens our load. It is He, as the great biblical story: physician, who bandages our wounds and brings healing to our souls. It is He who teaches us those specific things that we need to know for each particular As Jesus and His disciples were on their way. He came to a village where a point in our spiritual walk. What John discovered and what we must understand woman named Martha opened her home to Him. She had a sister called is that it is in communion, that time spent with Jesus in solitude, silence, and Mary, who sat at the Lord's feet listening to what He said. But Martha was prayer, that the relationship develops which allows Him to do His work. distracted by all the preparations that had to be made. She came to Him and Where there is no communion, there is no transformation. asked, "Lord, don't you care that my sister has left me to do the work by Communion with Christ is the most important distinctive that we as Quakers myself? Tell her to help me!" "Martha, Martha," the Lord answered, "you have because it is out of this relationship with Christ that other distinctives flow. are worried and upset about many things, but only one thing is needed. Mary has chosen the better part which will not be taken away from her."

The Marthas of the world want to get the job done and check the box must be a well-kept secret since he doesn't mention Quakers at all in his book. off—even if the job is communing with Jesus. The Marys of the world whisper, Apparently he has never heard of us. "Come, Lord Jesus, let us commune together" and they lose themselves in Him. According to Rutz, if the Church can just recapture open worship, open shar These two experiences are as different as a silk rose is from a real one. Outwardly ing, and open ministry, it will "directly transform hearts and pound the gates of they may look very much alike but inwardly there is a profound difference. One Hell into splinters." has life and one does not. Well, friends, modern Quakers are living proof that Mr. Rutz's thesis is flawed. The lack of understanding and experiencing true spiritual communion is the For we have the things that Rutz claims the evangelical church at large lacks but primary weakness in evangelical Christianity today. For it is through communion we can hardly be described as pounding the gates of Hell into splinters. So what with Christ, not through programs, as well thought out as they may be, or the is the problem? The early church had these things and turned the world upside habitual practice of lifeless disciplines that Christians and, therefore, the Church down. The early Quakers practiced these things with the same result. But the is transformed and empowered. It is this reality that empowered the Quaker church difference between then and now and the weakness in Rutz's proposition is this: 350 years ago. And it is this Quaker truth that John rediscovered 350 years later. What happens on Sunday when we as a body practice open sharing, open Interestingly, numerous Quaker truths are being rediscovered by non-Quak worship, and open ministry must be founded on the personal communion that ers these days.
