Too Many Churches In This Town!

Posted on 04/27/2013 3:44:31 PM PDT by Vinylly

Across the street from us we have a 'First Congregational United Church of Christ'. They have a lesbian pastor, but still sometimes we have some discussions outside on the street. What took the cake, specially for a supposed religious person is when she said 'The problem with this city is that there are too many Churches.'(Her church is drastically losing membership) My jaw dropped, all I could say is 'The problem with this city is that there is not enough churches preaching the gospel!' (This city has the smallest church attendence in the country) What would you say to a pastor like that?

Her members are fleeing to the First Church of Obama, Messiah - they give their members free phones, food stamps and easy disability, you know.
