Mad At Church

We are live! If you're driving around Pocatello, you're going to see a couple of billboards up that have this web address: www.madatachurch.com

Let me ask you a question: have YOU ever been mad at the church? If you're honest, we would all have to answer that with a YES! Somehow, somewhere in our lives, the Church has hurt us. And it is a different for hurt for each and every one of us. But the church, the one that Jesus died for, is supposed to be a place of healing, hope and grace. Unfortunately, it's 'operated' daily by imperfect, sinful and selfish people. ( I can say that because I work in a church!)

So, starting March 22nd, we're going to talk about four key areas where the church has really hurt people, both in the church and outside the church. I invite you to visit the above mentioned web site and hear what it is we're up to, as well as see what we're going to talk about in that time leading up to Easter. Bring your questions, bring your hurt, bring your doubts. Let's see if God can't take those and turn them into something incredible for His glory!

Should be an interesting journey. In the meantime, if you have comments, thoughts, questions, whatever about madatchurch, feel free to drop a note here or at my email karl@fbcpoky.com.

See you in church...
