As much as I think a lot of the American “churches” are about as useful to God as a pitch pipe is to Yoko Ono, I’m not completely depressed by this dilemma. Matter of fact, I’m pretty giddy as the emails have started to pour in from readers from around the globe who are sick of bland Nancy churches lead by lame “leaders” who are driven by cash, carnality, convenience and culture rather than Christ.
