To image the being of God towards the world, to be the priest of creation, is to behave towards the world in all its aspects, of work, and of play, in such a way that it may come to be what it was created to be, that which praises its maker by becoming perfect in its own way. In all this, there is room for both usefulness and beauty to take their due place, but differently according to differences of activity and object.

Could not 99 percent of the church adequately support the 1 percent sent to the nations to fulfill the mission of God?

Sir Alfred Jules "Freddie" Ayer
