And when taken in brief historical context, I notice a similar pattern of “dressing up” old thinking. The church is still run by middle age white middle class males and I think the product can be modified by external influences but the core not changed. I recently heard marc andressen say that “the death of things is what causes innovation to have opportunity”. Newspring’s online campus solidified for me the same message that I see in most churches. If I closed my eyes I was back in the midwest in a wooden pew, smelling the dusty hymnal and wearing a small grey suit. Have we worked hard to market the small grey suit?

In particular as I like the interaction and chat ability to talk to others about my evolving ideas during worship. However I quickly found out old thinking new trick….man I felt like a sucker
