post-modern stained glass

I had to write out some info on NCC today. Thought this thought was worth sharing:

Meeting in rented facilities certainly has its challenges. But the theater has amazing assets. The screen is a big one. It’s 21st century stained glass. Medieval churches used stained glass to tell the gospel story in pictures to illiterate people. We use the movie screen to tell the gospel story in moving pictures to a post-literate culture.
