The true church is not a building with pews in it, and people sitting in the pews listening to the preacher once a week. The True Church is the Body of Christ. And so it is entirely possible that church institutions may crumble, but the Spirit that informs the Body of Christ gathers strength. Personally, I think we are living in a time of rising spirituality....

I strongly agree.

The strange result of today's political and legal environment is that it forces those who have confessed belief in Christ to affirm or deny that belief by making hard choices in the Spirit which become self-evident in their words and deeds. One cannot be cavalier in this environment.

We've previously used the metaphor of a great ship parting waters for the Spiritual "sense" that many of us Christians have today: He is moving. Maranatha, Jesus! (Rev 22:10-21)
