Our Church Has Lost It

Our church has lost it. Young adults preach even though they know nothing. It’s the blind leading the blind. They can’t teach me anything with their naive enthusiasm. This church will fail.

Then The Lord put his hands on my eyes. Two scales of cynicism fell to the ground.

Our church has got it. Young adults have a voice and preach the truth that God’s showing them. Our vision of God is improved by their clarity of sight. I learn because the Holy Spirit is the teacher. This church will thrive.

Cynicism kills the church one grumbler at a time.
