I once showed a well known Pentecostal minister around my Church. Here’s what he thought. He looked around the sanctuary and said: “Look at all these memorial plaques! This is a graveyard!” He looked up at the lighting in the Church: “Yellow? You need pink! purple! green!” He saw my black gown hanging on a hook: “You wear this? It's an anachronism! Throw it away!” OBSERVATION: It's good to know that, actually, none of these things matters to a Church's success. Nor do many more. If one looks at history, one sees thriving Churches without a lot of the things one might imagine to be essential.
