Churches have to grow, it's a fact, and I'm grateful to Team LSP for coming up with some good suggestions that will help me achieve this goal at the Missions.
Altar |
Here's one: "I know this artist who paints as a form of worship, right up at the altar. At the end of the service, she has completed a masterpiece. You should invite her to train them to do altar paintings." Good idea!
A Praise Band, "Getting it On." Note Dancer. |
Here's another one: "We should get drums, fog machines, and hire a barista." I like it, but that's not all.
Oh Yeah. |
"You need Liturgical Dance!" I think that goes without saying and I'll get right on it. So thank you, Team, for your help. Well done.
Rumors that Jay Z is some kind of Illuminati shill puppet for the NWO are just that, rumors.
God bless,

When a religious service is more like a medicine show, I personally question the credibility of those participating. There is a church near where I live (no, not the Mosque) where they have the full band, fog machine, pyrotechnics and power-point sermons. I don't know if there is interpretive dance or not because I don't go there, but I wouldn't be surprised.
ReplyDeleteIf it was Jerusalem 3 AD, you know it would be Herod's palace where he ordered the execution of babies or where Salome danced for the head of John the Baptist. Funny how that works.
I hadn't made the King Herod connection,but it's a good one.
ReplyDeleteThings ended badly for him...
You forgot my recommendation to support gay marriage and have an in-house meth lab. A church should seem "accessible" and "culturally relevant" to the "disenfranchised".
ReplyDeleteBut at least you'll be lifting their spirits with some dancing. :)
Nothing like a good bit of liturgical dance to lift the spirits!
ReplyDeleteAngels and ministers of grace, defend us ...
ReplyDeleteThere's definitely a need for angelic protection "in the day of battle"...
