The most glaring example that comes to mind (among many many others) is "it takes mature believers to create a seeker sensitive service." and in the next sentence "thinking of other's needs before your own demonstrates incredible maturity."

I haven't read PDC. But not having the above in context, I don't see how the statements disagree.

Needs. The needs are not real needs. The needs throughout the book are defined as 'personal tastes.'

In addition the first statement "It takes mature believers to create a seeker-sensitive service" I would agree with. That means you have to be mature FIRST before you will be able to even come close to doing it 'right' without compromising the truth.

In the other statement the implication is 'if you are wanting to create a seeker sensitive service, that means you are mature, so go ahead.'
