Our congregation will soon initiate a new assembly we're calling "Bar Church." The plan is to actually have Christians worship in a bar. We're taking this step because Christians haven't always done well at being Salt and Light.
This is worth a try. Jesus went to the people. So in Bar Church we'll be following the footsteps of the Master. This won't be the first church group using a saloon as a gathering place. But it will definitely be an exception to the expected environment.
Can it be that moving to a bar will allow us to actually achieve what the theme song of "Cheers" described as "a place where everyone knows your name"?
Years ago a friend told me about the precision of the instruments in his refinery. He said that they could operate within 1 percent of blowing up.
I usually try to stay as far as I can get from an explosion. But an oil refinery is much more lucrative when the pressure and temperature approach the point where the whole thing could blow up. I think believers should take this to heart. Leaven has to surround itself with dough in order to do its job.
