After writing last night’s post, I sent an e-mail to a friend — Scott Sager.
A couple of things were running through my mind as I listened to today’s sermon.
Do you think I’m off base? I actually talked (very briefly) with Matt after the sermon tonight. He basically said that he wanted to go in a different direction. I’m not very good at actually confronting people, so I don’t think I expressed myself as well as I could have. I wasn’t mean or anything — just timid. I’m not exactly sure how a lay person goes about bringing a theological concern to the teaching team.
Anyway — do you think I have a point?
I’ve invited him to respond here. I’d like this to be the start of a (hopefully) edifying conversation.
