You are very thoughtful and open minded.
This comment caught my attention
I think so many of those things would be changed if people would really “work the program”. Really preach the love of Jesus….be in love with Jesus…and allow Jesus to work through them in this world. Ultimately, if Christians did a better job of manifesting the fruit of the spirit…so many other things would fall into place.
What does preaching the love of Jesus and being in love with Jesus actually look like to you?
What I mean is - If I was watching a video of you with the sound turned off and I said to myself - Wow, he is really preaching the love of Jesus or he obviously really really loves Jesus - What would I be seeing? What would you be doing? Paint a picture for me
ChurchRater was mentioned in the Seattle Times today. If you’re here because of that article, we hope you’ll check out reviews of churches in your area and also our blog. We welcome comments; you can also contact us here.
Here are the audio recordings of the two sessions with Jim and Casper (right click “download” to download the file to your computer). The presentation in both sessions is similar but the questions from the audience after the presentation are different.
Is This What Jesus Told You Guys To Do? (Friday)
Jim Henderson & Matt Casper
ChurchRater was an experiment intended to encourage dialog between church visitors or regular attenders and church leaders.
We wanted Church Rating to be a fun process. We included numerical ratings to encourage people not to take it too seriously. We gave people freedom to write as little or as much as they wanted. We asked for thoughtful comments which were honest but not mean.
We hoped ChurchRater would be a resource that people would use to make church better. (more…)
