top 5 blogs (part 2 of 5)

where is the feedback?                  11/21/08

 

I was wondering why a lot of people say they read my blog, but no one comments on it. Maybe my readers are just not good with words, maybe their too lazy to comment, or maybe they just don't get technology. Then I was advised by a friend of mine that I had to change the settings because it was currently set to only let registered blogspot users have a say. What a simple thing I was doing to disconnect people from my blog.

 

I think this sums up most churches today.

 

They have a great message, but no one is responding to it. They figure out all the reasons in the world why people are not getting into what they are doing; a liberal culture shift, young people's attention spans, money, etc. They are completely unaware of the fact that they have shut the world out and are only interacting with those "inside". It takes some simple adjustments to change from being a gathering of people focused on self to being a living body that reaches out to a world in need. The message they have is compelling, it is what people are born to hear.

 

The question is whether or not the Church is ready to respond to the world's response to the Gospel.

 

As a blogger I am now ready for your comments. As a follower of Christ, I am ready to see you respond to the message of Christ!

So here's my comment... There's a spelling error in your second sentence. Just testing your response to criticism :)

But really, I stumbled across your blog and I've really enjoyed your thought provoking posts.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts,
