| Evangelizing the Church in the Age of Delusion |
HEY EVERYBODY...
I FOUND A GREAT CHURCH!
I FOUND A GREAT CHURCH!
They meet on Sunday mornings and what's cool about it is that the meeting is only thirty minutes long (they have 24 different services that meet every half hour from 6am - 6pm, cool huh?), so it doesn't get in the way of the rest of your day!
The meeting itself is divided up as follows: 25 minutes of the best Rock'n'roll music you'd ever wanna hear (ear plugs are handed out at the front door, along with the StarBucks and McDonald's Happy Meals for the kids-the kids can have StarBucks too, if they want...IT'S CRAZY!).
After the music, the Senior Pastor sets his electric guitar down (he's in the band, of course), and gives a 5 minute devotional that he calls, The Thought of the Day.*
What's so cool about this "Thought of the Day," is that the pastor can really relate, you know what I mean? He's been married three times (although he is transgender, he's only been married to women, thus far), has been in prison twice, and swears like a drunken sailor!
In fact, he used to be a drunken sailor, literally! He was in the Navy for ten months until being dishorably discharged for "disrespecting" an officer. Although he doesn't condone texting while drinking and driving, MY TEEN-AGERS LOVE HIM, especially all of his cool tatoos! He never talks about money, sin, or anything that might be construed as negative.
Anyway, I can't make it this Sunday, or next, but I'm definitely going back as soon as I can find the time. Actually, it's not so much for me, but for my kids. I only get 'em on weekends once a month, so I definitely want them to be grounded spiritually.
*Last Sunday's "Thought of the Day" was AWESOME! The pastor gave us an introduction to his new book entitled, "The Politically Correct Guide to Tolerance."
