Thank you so much for these thoughts … I am late to read them but could not agree with you more.

Amen, I say, Amen. As someone raised Jewish, now baptized Christian and worshiping at a liturgical church, I grow ever more dismayed by false divisions. I’m also dismayed by the so-called real (i.e., doctrinal) divisions. Is this how we’re fulfilling The Great Commission? I think not.

Pharisees and Sadducees? More like the Corinthians!

I am new to your blog. I stumbled onto your message on Streaming Faith website. I love be the church. It smacked me right where I live and right where I believe. Churches cab be such scary places..all theology and judgments. I know the little bracelets that said what would Jesus do became a little trite, but I don’t see us questioning ourselves in that realm nearly enough. Less church and more love seems to be where we actually need to be. It sounds like you address we Christians in a real and loving way. I love the attitude of your blog and the human touch of your reach. Reading and responding to this made my day richer. The people I see the rest of the day will surely agree.

It’s so true. I am reading through Wurmbrand’s Tortured For Christ and it’s stabbing a knife through the heart most of my “Christian world view.” He speaks of the difference of the Underground church of Romania and the Western church. He notes that the Western church argues theology and who can do what when, the Underground church has no theology, as they barely have a bible to get it from. They simply have a love for the Father, and those the Father loves.

We are baby Einsteins in the US. Tons of knowledge, little maturity.

Amen! I think everyone’s said everything I can think to say, so I’ll leave it at that.

“Listen, it’s got to stop. We’ve got to stop showing up on Sunday mornings and playing church…” I’ve been pondering that a lot lately. Now some of you may think I’ve jumped off the deep-end and will surely quote scripture where it speaks of not neglecting to gather together, but hear me out. Would I be more beneficial to the Kingdom if I didn’t spend 6-7 hours a week on Sunday doing the “church thing”? Would I see more clearly the things around me and be available if I weren’t spending 3 hours of my time each week preping from “church programming”? Before you go and flog me, please know I’ve spent my share of time in the heart of church ministry (13+) and have a great respect for many aspects. I just want to always be open to the possiblility that God might want to do things differently in me. Being out full-time ministry for over a year now has really given me a new (and yes maybe tainted at times) perspective. I can’t wait for what God has planned each day and I sure wouldn’t want to miss something, because I was busy playing church. I believe there’s a healthy balance out there. May we all find that balance… where we love one another in truth and fight together to make a GREAT difference in the world in which we live.
