Apparently YOU are (laughter)....This from baptistpress and Thom Rainer: 4 keys to keeping people in church http://t.co/z0x03Sy8 fb
What is missing or absent from this article or is it "spot on"?
One critic: The article assumes we have found THE way to be the gathered (weekends) and scattered church (weekdays). All we need to do is "tighten up the ship"
Second critic: JESUS is absent from the solution. The Cornerstone of this movement should have something to say and should be informing what or where we are misguided.
Positive: The significance of RELATIONSHIPS in "making people stick." The church could do more to foster relationships. The church should behave more as an ADOPTED Spiritual Family always looking for one more to adopt.
Your turn....What have you learned/discovered?
