		<description>And old saying about being offended: &quot;Throw a rock into a pack of dogs and the one that gets hit will bark the loudest!&quot; I heard some barkers in these coments with their &quot;Corrective spirit&quot; on how this shouldn&#039;t have been written. As a past evangelist who has been in many churches this is to true to be &quot;corrected!&quot; </description>

		<description>Enjoyed the post. Ever heard of larknews.com? It occasionally has some funny satirical stuff too. It&#039;s good to laugh at ourselves from time to time. </description>

		<description>God Bless everyone, I was truly inspired by Paul&#039;s emails. It seems a few are too &quot;starched&quot; to blend humor and God. Our mandate from Jesus Christ is &quot;Go Ye Into The World&quot; not become part of the world. We are to be Watchmen and messengers. Here is something to ponder, why most of the cities there are zillion churches and the crime rate is just as high. The church should be the center of the community and the community center. Not a place to house the saved, but to treat the unsaved. When was the last time your church went to a jail, prison, nursing home or hospital? How about this, when was the last time the church had a evangelistic event like giving out tracts in the neighborhood. After reading John 3, read Matthew 28:19-20, then check out Ezekiel 33. Some the churches and leaders have become complacent. God Bless this site and God bless you for allowing me to share.</description>

		<description>To those offended by this article: GET OVER IT. Many churches have become this way as well as becoming &quot;businesses&quot; instead of churches.

As an evangelist, I have seen many of these types of attitudes all around the country. I have been told &quot;there is no way YOU are going to preach in OUR church. You have long hair, tattoos, and you wear a  biker&#039;s vest to preach. There is NO WAY you can be a Christian like that, let alone be a preacher.&quot;

Those that are offended by articles like this need to get down on their knees, apologize to God for offending HIM, and ask HIM to show them the way to be a true follower.

Want a real church? Follow Jesus and do what you are told to do by the Holy Spirit.</description>
