I worry that there are so many comments here where we are judging him. I know alot of people who have claimed to know Christ, lived a life that was Christian in every way, yet deep down really don't know the difference. They thought they were Christian. They lived liked it. But their heart wasn't there. To me, that is I feel he is saying. Do I agree with him - no. Should we pray for him - yes.

Another thought - What role, if any, should a minister/pastor/clergyman have with regard to speaking out publicly beyond his/her four walls. Does that change when he/she starts to address politics? If so, is there a danger that people will start to attend a church that is more in line with their political views vs. attending a church the feeds them spiritually?

I have a friend who is a pastor of a small church in TN., and feels the government should be doing more to help the homeless and underserved. Is that what we want – mandating that we help through our government instead of doing with conviction what Christ instructed me to do? I cannot help but wonder why the church is not stepping up in a bigger way. I know that Westside is, but there are a lot that are not. Then again there are a lot that are doing even more than we are. There are so many good examples out there why isn’t more being done? Is the problem so huge that it feels like we are bucking against a tidal wave?

I guess I am asking a lot of things without really having an answer, but to start it all off, what is the voice that should be shared? ...Sorry for the dump....

So here is a question related to this. What if the way I relax is to work in the garden, etc. Is this work? Even if it means I am relaxing? What about riding a bike for 4 hours? Does it change if I am praying or thinking of God? What if I only think about God off and on?

Okay… so that is an interesting question/statement. I would love to hear what you have to say about “responsibility.” But since you asked, I will start - the dictionary says this that responsibility is a duty or obligation to satisfactorily perform or complete a task (assigned by someone, or created by one's own promise or circumstances) that one must fulfill, and which has a consequent penalty for failure.

To me it means if I take responsibility for something I “own” it. I cannot blame anyone else because - it is up to me to do or to finish. Also, the word responsibility has been used a ton over the years. With that in mind, and since I love to collect interesting quotes, following are some quotes to ponder:

Life is a gift, and it offers us the privilege, opportunity, and responsibility to give something back by becoming more. - Tony Robbins

If you take responsibility for yourself you will develop a hunger to accomplish your dreams. - Les Brown

I will offer up one of my own: God has given us a gift. Whatever that gift may be, it is our responsibility to use it in a way that glorifies Him. - Michael

I am still struggling with the following “Heresy” regarding tithing supported by Biblical backing:
"You can give to any cause you want and call it your tithe."

Personally, traditionally I looked at my tithing from the Big C church standpoint and not the little C church standpoint. If I am financially helping with a mission trip, a soup kitchen, the guy on the street, who ever and what ever it might be as long as it is furthering the kingdom of God – isn’t that part of the Big C church? Isn't that what God would call being part of the Big C church - looking out for each other - helping each other - doing it without thought? Does it really need to be these things, plus give an additional 10% (or the first 10% and then these however you want to look at it) to the little c church?

Interesting.

Interesting to hear that Mark Driskoll feels it is about Church planting and not necessarily Multi-site teaching. That he believes that when he dies, each of the multi-sites would become independent. Not sure I believe that. Use our church as an example – fallen leader, 3-4 years later, it is still the multi-site format.

Another interesting point – multi-site churches teach young men to preach via the smaller multi-site location, and more experienced guys jumping in via the larger site. Kinda like to hear that and see it in action.
