Re: What are your thoughts on this?

I'm all for trying to reach people but holding services in a bar seems a bit much to me personally.

It might have some "risks". But this is war. Why don't we accept the fact that there will be losses? It's like we see that the war must be fought.... but we don't want to brave the fire or move into enemy territory.

True statements.....we like safe

I understand. I thought the same thing... until I gave a Bible Study in an Applebee's at one of the tall tables in the bar section. People listened in. We also had some good food with the study. Would you hold a bible study for a couple friends in an Applebee's? What would be the difference in your opinion?

Now if I were teaching a Bible study in a bar, I'd teach my study while drinking only water. I'd only have an Old Fashioned (a personal favorite) or a glass of wine afterward if I chose to socialize. hehehe
