Church

Having been to a large, evangelical church in the past year where the visiting pastor was preaching on marriage and trying to be clever and contemporary at the same time and to accomplish that had props that involved large signs that said what men wanted in a marriage was "SEX" (in large red letters) and how the wife could fulfill that desire (new red sign that said "GET NAKED"), I understand and appreciate this post on Pyromaniacs.

In case you don't have time to read the whole thing (but it's worth taking the time), here's the conclusion:

But how hard can it be, really? How complicated? "Feed my lambs," the Lord Jesus says. "Tend my sheep," "Feed my sheep" (John 21:15-17). Not entertain them, not whip them into a frenzy, not lead them in a cheer, or use cheap show-biz manipulations to get them to clap their hooves together. Feed them! Tend them!

"Preach the Word" the apostle says (1 Timothy 4:2). Herald it, proclaim it, sound it out with authority and truth. Not dance about it, not sideline it, not bury it, not use it to say what you want to say. Preach the Word. Preach the Word. Preach the Word!
