Hmmmmm? My Pastor always said, "Never worry about a wild fire in the church - there will always be a wet blanket to put it out.
And .. "Purpose Driven" isn't a series - it's one book. The series is called: "Left Behind".
And .. I don't worry about people coming or going in a church. That's nothing new and sometimes those who leave your church are really a blessing in disguise.
GOD is preparing the church for the final harvest. People can either get in .. get out .. or get run over.
"And .. "Purpose Driven" isn't a series - it's one book."
Obviously you haven't read "Purpose Driven Church"...and it is not just a book, it is a philosophy that many churches are blindly following, looking for the easy way to attract new members. The sermons from Warren's website for pastors who are lazy and merely download sermons at http://www.pastors.com
are watered down and soft peddled.
Now isn't THAT a loving attitude? You failed to attribute that famous quote to Rod Parsley.
Love it.
I thoroughly agree.
BTW, are you an expert in such matters--having a terrible time getting rid of CASH TOOLBAR spyware etc. with even several removal software packages. Terribly tencacious stuff. Comes back immediately from wherever it's bits are lurking in my system.
