Institutions

Not a book, but a great quote from a Quaker friend:

"Christians who participate in the good news know that death has been defeated. They know that institutional self-preservation is not the greatest of all goods. They are, in other words, freed from the corporate fear of death, set free to invite institutions, corporations, and other human collectivities to fulfill their God-given purposes. Christians model this in their own corporate life and commend this liberating mode of corporate life to the world as a whole."
