Some in my old-fashioned Lutheran synod rail against the mega-church culture, and probably with good reason. Good & thought-provoking, caution.Jeannellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10506888396193293867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4509837894723271120.post-58827746455047511922008-11-21T18:52:00.000-05:002008-11-21T18:52:00.000-05:00You know what is scary, is that some parts were so...You know what is scary, is that some parts were so like some of the churches I have visited. Some were even like the church I belong too now.<BR/><BR/>What bothered me most was the greeters not greeting. I took a woman in a wheelchair to a church and you had to push the chair up a hill and the door was up this hill, it was so hard to open the door myself and push her in. Glass doors and all the people, looking, not once helping. So the first time, I thought, it was just a mishap. Then three more times of it happening, we stopped going back.<BR/><BR/>My first 24 years of life, was brought up in a close knit very small country church. It was very personable. Now I belong to a large three congregation church and sometimes it is so overwhelming. I feel like those people in this video at times. My daughter love the church and that is good. My old church is three hours away, so I can only make it once a year if that.WheresMyAngelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10846463631273691864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4509837894723271120.post-54591164595616693122008-11-20T20:42:00.000-05:002008-11-20T20:42:00.000-05:00Mailers always work ya know.

And that raising the hand thing, hello. <BR/>I was waiting for them to hit on the "Tall is a small" thing, like, how we have our own secret language that the outside word might not get. Good video. I watched it with The Boy on my lap and we discussed it. Unfortunately now, my leg is numb and I had to kick him off to be able to comment!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4509837894723271120.post-3373853885191651042008-11-20T11:58:00.000-05:002008-11-20T11:58:00.000-05:00This really make me think.
