Another 'homerun' cartoon from the Naked Pastor! I saw the cartoon shortly after reading Scot McKnight's 'Spiritual Eroticism' at Out of Ur yesterday where he writes, "for many, Sunday services have become the experience of courtly love. Some folks love church, and what they mean by "loving church" is that they love the experience they get when they go to church."

If you are a parent whose kids range in ages from tots to teens it certainly is challenging trying to get everyone in your family to have a memorable experience that will get them excited enough to come back the following Sunday. But since when did THAT become the goal?!

Deuteronomy 7:6
Do this because you are a people set apart as holy to God, your God. God, your God, chose you out of all the people on Earth for himself as a cherished, personal treasure.

Romans 12:2
Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
