some strong words from Anderson Campmeeting

I wasn't able to go to NAC(North American Convention) of the Church of God, but I have heard and read some promising things, no doubt. I was most excited to hear that Reggie McNeal threw down on Monday night. Here are a couple quotes,
"i'm not here to help you do church better, because most of what we're doing is not going to matter. tweakin' this sucker is not gonna get it done"
"God takes attendance by asking, 'who's missing?' and there are a whole lot of somebody's missing--whole generations missing from our churches"
"just bless people--you're more likely to see people open up through blessing them than trying to convict them"

I also heard that McNeal compared fledgling church movements, or THE CHURCH, to the Pharisees souring God's intent, WOW.

here is the LINK to watch that sermon streamed online. Thanks to Ken Oldham for the info.

These things are great to hear aren't they? My hope is emerging more now. Ha ha...get it...emerg..."it's gotta be your bull."
