Mutiny

All through my Christian life I’ve heard this term ＂The Good Old Gospel Ship.＂ It was used as a song, a skit in Sunday School and my personal favorite, a term to describe the church. This ＂Good Old Gospel Ship＂ has been sailing for a LONG time and it became evident to me last year while speaking at Cornerstone Festival (a former hard rock Christian music festival) that many of these ＂ships＂ are stuck on a one-way course. It is as if the steering wheel is broken and the captain has lost interest and is simply sailing. In talking with this group, I’ve discovered there is a cadre of people that want to see change and simply do not know how to turn this ship around. It is my desire to see more and more churches ＂get it＂ and begin to make the necessary changes.
