I went into this weekend with a little fear and trepidation. We kicked off The Elephant in the Church series and I was pretty sure that I would step on some toes because we decided to talk about gray elephants this week. By gray elephants I mean disputable matters (Romans 14:1) that are not black and white. I focused on alcohol today.
Not sure how to say this, but I felt like a pastor today. I think it's easy to talk about easy topics that everybody agrees on. But navigating the topics that are tough to talk about is part of what it means to be a pastor.

For what it's worth, we'll open-source this series once we finish it. I think it's worth some other church taking on some of these topics head-on! Or you can come up with your own elephants. But we can't not talk about the elephants in the church!

I just signed up for the E-mail thingy.
Glad you picked my topic, can't wait to hear your perspective.
God Bless.
I clicked to sign up for the message via email but all I see is the evotional email signup. I already get that by email. Are you sending the written version of your message with the evotional blogs? Am I missing something? Is there a special place to sign up for the written message?
Lisa,
Just sign-up and you'll get the written version of my message emailed to you. It usually emails on Wednesdays.

Finally got to see you in person and what a great service it was, I'm here in Sterling working and have visited NCC several times now. Our church in Albany,Ga. " The Pointe " started over a year ago and Sunday started having services at the local theater!
I'm very excited that NCC is here and makes it feel like home.
Regards,
Randall
