Jamie those...I sat in one of those meetings myself. Jamie those young folks you spoke about are not in worship because they don't trust us. They say we are judgmental, we don't like homosexuals, we are unaccepting of other faith systems and among other things they have been taught by the world they can live a moral life, have a beer once and in a while, do some mild drugs, buy lottery tickets because that is what those Christians do. They can give to charity, feed the hungry, clothe the naked, help others break free from addictions without having to come to worship in the ways you and I and a a bunch of other folks do.<br /><br />But that's my rant...and again you are right I have identified the the thought process without a clear solution except maybe we need to meet them where they are and live out who we say we are. I believe its time to seek reality rather than relevance.brostevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10357850425519945952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4917382355345507520.post-43507026954262593792012-06-29T07:02:11.208-07:002012-06-29T07:02:11.208-07:00Amen and amenAmen and amenThe Crafty Lawyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09679649557272303635noreply@blogger.com
