If you think about it, a church should function a lot like a box of matches... How you ask? Well first of all, we as humans are a lot like matches - we were created for a purpose; obtain a flame that gives us a massive amount of power and self-worth. When a match receives a flame, it gains possession of a power outside of itself - fire - which can be used either for tremendous good or potential harm. Regardless, a match with a flame is a powerful thing. However, a match without a flame is simply a cheap, useless stick of wood. It is sort of like Jesus' words in John 15:5, "Without me, you are nothing."
