CHURCH STANDARDS
The church knows it must not violate this world’s comfort standards and expect to have attendees. See our fabrics, settle into our cushions, and feel our conditioned air: Even in church we want it easy. Like movie houses, we will pad our seats, glitz our lighting, modulate our reverbs, and say, “Come to Christ and go on our ski retreat….” Our huge temples of evangelical success may only be, as Vance Havner once said, million dollar launching pads that send up firecrackers. Calvin Miller in Moody Monthly, January 1990
