Further to the article below, an Amsterdam church has a new way to get people into the church:
Churches in Amsterdam were hoping to attract such people with a recent open evening.
At the Old Church “in the hottest part of the red light district”, the attractions included “speed-dating”.
As skimpily dressed girls began to appear in red-lit windows in the streets outside, visitors to the church moved from table to table to discuss love with a succession of strangers.
It might get bodies in the Church, but does it further the Kingdom?
The most interesting thing I found in that article was the statement “we can use the same words and mean different things”. Isn’t that exactly what the mainline church is doing in North America?
I wonder if they tithe?
