Some churches here in the States spent the 80s and 90s talking like it was a brand new cultural shift for people to NOT be a part of a Christian church. a.k.a. They were talking like a post-Christian culture was coming fast, as opposed to recognizing that it had long since arrived.
How old of a cultural institution, for example is Sunday Brunch?
Isn’t it this loud, unapologetic, “WE DON’T GO TO CHURCH. IT DOESN’T EVEN CROSS OUR MINDS.”?
I’m not complaining about Sunday Brunch. I want Christians to look into culture and figure out how, when, and where to communicate the Gospel of Jesus Christ in attractive, bold and humble ways. I wonder if a local church could host a Sunday Brunch that’s all about Jesus? Hmm…
OK, I know it seem ridiculous to comment on your own post, but I thought of something I thought was humorous/awesome. What about a brunch called Bacon Day, where you eat wonderful foods and teach about Peter’s vision of foods declared clean and that Christ’s Kingdom is for everyone? That was be awesome!! I’m gonna do that one day.
