It took David and I several years to find our church. David has a degree in public speaking and a background in music, and so finding a pastor who was a great speaker combined with professional music was challenginge. Plus, we aren’t exactly the “dress-up” kind of people. I don’t even own a dress and David only owns the required wedding/funeral suit. I recognize that our church is not for everyone. If you are looking for a choir in robes, or Easter bonnets, well our church is not it. One of the things that really appealed to David and I was how hard they work to make the word of God accessible. Our pastors, who both have Phd’s in theology, are about as humble and hip as you could find. They are on Facebook, they have a blog, they post podcasts, they take questions via text message. Last night David and I were talking about the bible and had a question. I posted the question on Facebook, and in less than three hours I had a message back from one of our senior pastors. How cool is that? Our Easter service (which you can listen to HERE) was very unique. They opened up the service with a DJ spinning and the rapper Manafest performing. You can see Manafest’s video HERE. At any rate, instead of listening to the “what” of Easter (the resurecction) we heard about the “so what” of Easter. Once again, making me leave our church feeling empowered for the week ahead.
