A CASE OF PETTINESS
Petty people are ugly people. They are people who have lost their vision. They are people who have turned their eyes away from what matters and focused, instead, on what doesn’t matter. The result is that the rest of us are immobilized by their obsession with the insignificant. It is time to rid the church of pettiness. It is time the church refused to be victimized by petty people. It is time the church stopped ignoring pettiness. Is is time the church quit pretending that pettiness doesn’t matter… Pettiness has become a serious disease in the Church of Jesus Christ – a disease which continues to result in terminal cases of discord, disruption, and destruction. Petty people are dangerous people because they appear to be only a nuisance instead of what they really are – a health hazard. The Wittenburg Door, December 1984
