Great writing Joshua! (sorry a few days late – I just saw the article linked from CMS )

Here in Singapore, it’s pretty much the same thing.

I’m looking around for a church too. Your insight in the recent few post is really useful.

Joshua, I also have been enjoying your blog, especially your series of late on trying to find a church. You’ve really gotten me thinking on what MY role in outreach at our church means, and how I can be better at it! Thanks!

Dude!
See you Sunday – issues and all!

Everybody here (and everywhere for that matter) has issues. I do, and I’m the pastor! There may be one or two that will judge you, but maybe your coming will help us get them saved, recommitted or out the door.

Every Sunday night, we have segment where I ask, “What is God doing in your life.” and we share what is going on. Some of us are more open about it than others. But I have yet to hear any backlash about it.

I think you have hit on an excellent point

Joshua,

Found you via Church Marketing Sucks. Good stuff. I appreciate your transparency and insight. I will definitely be back.

My friend Sam recently played a song he wrote called Mess at one of our sunday night gatherings. Thought you might like it. Check it out at http://www.crossroadsct.org/podcast/2007/03/deborah-beyond-ordinary-conviction.html

peace and prayers,
