Why Attractional Churches Suck

Quote of the day from a book called 'The problem of wineskins' by Howard A. Snyder.

The gospel says, "Go," but our church buildings say, "Stay". The gospel says, "Seek the lost," but our churches say, "Let the lost seek the church." pg. 70

Well put, and that was in the 70's. The result of his words? The explosion of attractional 'seeker sensitive' churches in the 90's that are suddenly finding themselves irrelevant to the world around them.
