Yep, you sure are.

Why even put something like that on here. Don't we get enough of it in the world around us?

You aint hip to the new soulwinning ways, man. Just wear hip trendy tshirts and make sure you are relevant.

This is what old guys think; That's ignorance at it's finest. Some people have to come up with all kinds of entertaining stuff now days to keep their audience attention. I would think that shirt was all he had to say and then he could have went an sat down. I would have been rolling..

I think that it was brilliant! Really! I guaranty you that the church will never forget about forgiveness ever again! They'll think about it every time they hear someone cuss! When all of the other sermons have faded, this one will go with them to their grave!

Yep your probably right. When all the sermons that edify have passed away then they will remember something they can associate with their past..and maybe in some cases their presents.

Exactly!!!! How many people can remember what they heard even this last Sunday? I don't have the nerve...I'll admit it....to do what he did. But he made a good point and he spoke the language of the audience, he connected, and I would guarantee that people forgave that desperately needed to.

But of course, the critics need to gripe. If you don't like what he did, go do a better job.

"Relevant" is not a dirty word. It simply means the ability to connect with the audience and produce life-change, something that rarely happens in the pentecostal-performance sermons.

I could do a better job than that any day of the week and twice on Sunday/
