Can you explain more fully what you mean here? 1) What should the church be doing, that you believe it is not doing? 2) I am not sure if you are against contempary worship services or what when you state "mindless, trance-inducing choruses written by modalists"? 3) Can you describe the elements to a "feel good service" verses a service that you think is not "feel good' (and therefore something you think we need to return to on Sunday mornings?) Thanks! {{{Candleman}}} Hi Mike,

Can you explain more fully what you mean here?

1) What should the church be doing, that you believe it is not doing?

2) I am not sure if you are against contempary worship services or what when you state “mindless, trance-inducing choruses written by modalists”?

3) Can you describe the elements to a “feel good service” verses a service that you think is not “feel good’ (and therefore something you think we need to return to on Sunday mornings?)

Thanks!

I especially liked the line about convincing people they're really average. Peace. Another bull’s eye, Mike. I especially liked the line about convincing people they’re really average. Peace.
