I have always thought that phrase was somewhat conceited.
My church is by no means perfect, & neither am I, but it is, to use a glib, over-used phrase, definitely “spirit-filled.” I.e. one goes there, often empty, distracted, secular in one’s thinking, and yet slowly, mysteriously, one does encounter God there; get filled again with his spirit, his love, his energy, his inspiration, his will to do good & bless.
I leave smiling–from the inside out!!
