Where's Dr. Gene Scott on this list?
He's dead, yet I'd still rather listen to him than any of these other bloviators.

I am familiar with several of the churches on this list.
Not one of them could even remotely be considered a "RECREATION-CENTER."
The ones with which I am familiar are doctrinally sound and preach the uncompromised Gospel of Christ.
Oh, and they offend sinners as a matter of course. Just like the Gospel is supposed to.

To: maestro
alas, for the most part you are correct.
Except John Piper's church. At least I think. I'm sure there are other exceptions, as well.
To: maestro
I agree. Churches have become social clubs more than places where correct teaching and equipping of the saints takes place.

I attend one of those churches, and it is good, solid teaching and a fantastic youth program to boot. All sermons are archived and available via streaming video (free) online, and they are fantastic. Good teaching and good worship is what caused us to attend this church...not recreation.

You're actually saying these 50 aren't "real" churches??
