Lord willing, I want to be an agent of change

I am working through Nate Larkin's book, Samson and the Pirate Monks: Calling Men to Authentic Brotherhood, and got this quote from a review of the book:

"In the course of its evolution, the church has managed to shed many of its original qualities. Two of these are the devotion to truth and the brotherhood of all men, which often appear to have been replaced by the devotion to keeping up appearances and competitive piety."

I'm not going to harp on what has been inserted into the church, because I could do that all day. I'd like to help bring back the original qualities, especially the brotherhood of all men. I need it.
