We've come here because people would be more likely to respond to an invitation when they're comfortable," said group leader Rick Lamborn of the nonprofit organization.

If 'Hooters" were the only possible place to meet...I would agree...but if people study God's word and are 'comfortable' at Hooters......there is something amiss...with their "comfort detection devices"

They are doing a Bible study to attract people who would not normally be at a Bible study.This is a lot like the way Jesus did it.He went among sinners and they were attracted to him.He would give a parable or talk in a manner they understood then quote God's word.

They never said they weren't using the Bible.They deal with questions and real life and then look to see what the Bible says.Not every Bible study involves reading a passage from scripture and discussing it.This approach is probably the best for dealing with a lost person.Change the heart then teach them right and wrong.
