The question remains - what should church look like?, how should we do it?
I would approach it like this: we could ask ourselves the question does 1000 denominations or one church per city best reflect the unity and oneness of the Body of Christ?
Common sense (and church history) shows it is the latter.

Of all the things that the church may be said to look "like," a bland greeting that makes reference to the place where the Christians which are the church reside is not what they look like. It is simply the place to find them. No definition of what they will look like from that greeting. No definition that they are meeting all together in one place with one set of elders.
