What does the Church do in this time of stress?

Over the last , oh say, 6 years, the Church has faced a hostile media, the problems of illegal immigration, the war against Islamofacism, secularism, the gay marriage,gay ordination battle, political corruption in all 50 states and of course, around the world, as well as the social corruption of our youth, the yuppie generation and sex, drugs and rock n'roll!! What to do? Faith is an action word, as CS Lewis reminds us. We are not only to feed the poor, help the weak, orphens, widows, but to stand up against evil. How to do that is and will be a real problem. Faith in our Lord Jesus on an individiual basis is a given, but if the Church is not standing for Jesus, then what? But, after personal salvation, which in a multicultural, ethnic, and religious society or non-religious as it seems to be going now, how can the Church display its love, grace, militancy all at the same time? I think the Church did well with the Asian tsnuami as well as Katrina. It is not doing so well against a secular humanist media nor is it doing well to guide the younger generation except in many mega-church set-ups. Often the Church looks foolish when spokespeople are asked for opinions and the media overplays them. The old disciplines, reading the Bible, prayer, fasting, doing for others is still a necessity in whatever changing status the world and the Church finds itself. Still, it must do a better job not by being corrupted by the culture, but it must help change the culture and at the same time fight evil without looking like finger-pointing pharisees. How to do this is the question of our time!
