Are we lacking a sense of urgency?

Transparency, action, sense of urgency.  Sounds like words that should describe the church in our mission!!  Have we been lulled into complacency as those apparently were in Mumbai?  Might we as the body of Christ need to take heed of the following words that came out a recent conference in Delhi? Not that I want us to come across as a right wing militant church.  Indeed, our enemies are not flesh and blood but the spiritual forces in the heavenly places.  Read Eph 6 and John 8.  Bold print from me.  Source from William Katz at Urgent Agenda

Sec of State Rice held a joint conference with External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee in Delhi earlier this evening. The part that jumped out to the media on their endless “Breaking News banners” was this statement: “What has to happen is there has to be a real sense of transparency, real sense of action and real sense of urgency because these are extremists who have the same intention and same goal, and that is to terrorize and send messages to states around the world.”
