    My understanding of scripture is that its about protecting the stranger and the prisoner and the poor person and that idea, thats what I get in the gospel when Im at church and his has a lot more to do with sexuality ... and a certain view of rectitude.

  4. Stu Strachan:

    The sermon has become the climactic element in a lot of denominations ’ services. A sermon is not simply teaching. It sets a precedent for understanding scripture correctly. And there’s also this moment of exhortation, of asking what it says about our own lives, there’s also more value added to a sermon as culture becomes more secular. If churches want to grow, they have to connect their teachings to modern life and modern problems.
