Comments on: Everything That’s Wrong With The American Church in Two Words http://pastoralia.org/church/everything-thats-wrong-with-the-american-church-in-two-words Welcome. I'm a husband, a father, an ordained minister, and a postmodern pilgrim. You can check out some of the projects I'm involved with below. In this space I mostly write about the intersections of Christianity and culture.

Travis: "Going green adds credibility in the community. I would have thought more churches would have embraced this opportunity by now." If I hear "Going green" ONE more time, my head is going to explode! I thought one of the MANY points to getting back on track with God's will for the church was to become less religious (until no religion exists in us....good luck with that) and more like children who resemble their Father every day. To be good stewards of this earth is a responsibility God calls us to take seriously. And we should. "Going green" is a new religion (cult in some cases - yes, I went there) CREATED by those who's intentions are far from caring about what and who God has called us to be. End of *public* rant. “Greener churches. Travis: “Going green adds credibility in the community. I would have thought more churches would have embraced this opportunity by now.”
