Ever wonder what some churches might look like if we saw them through God’s eyes?

I think this is sadly the case in many churches.
Perfect cartoon reflecting the church of our day. Maybe it is time to bring the Gospel preaching missionaries back to America to preach and teach what true repentance looks like, for it has become extinct here in the west.
Ann, I enjoy the Missionary conferences that my church have every year. They remind us of what we have and where we could be. The advantages that we take for granted that others will never experience. Attending these over the last few years has lightened my want list and increased what I give away.
I really like this picture and have sent it to our pastor.
Many in leadership would be offended to have this shown to them OR so blind and arrogant to not see this within their core.
Anon,
I sent it to him a while ago. He is getting used to me giving him things that could promote enlightenment. He hasn’t been offended so far or says he’s not.
Yep.
Brenda R – I’m smiling … you said, “He is getting used to me giving him things that could promote enlightenment.” We need more pastors like this that are ‘at least willing’ to receive or listen to what we are learning instead of just ‘closing the door in our face.’ Good for you; praying you continue to be a bold witness for THE TRUTH 🙂
Anon, I appreciate your prayers.
This could be some pastor’s conferences too!
