I once read something about early city/towns that they were defined by "walking distance." That of course was very practical. Today's cities bear no relation to the cities in the Bible. It is totally disingenous to connect the two with such legalistic ecclesiastical demands. It's like demanding that every minister be a fisherman, a farmer, a tax cllector, or a tentmaker because the early disciples were.
