State of the Black Church

[AKA2D '91]

I'm glad you mentioned being a member of a Non-denomination church.

I remember watching a program, it may have been Bobby Jones' talk show. Anyway, the panelist mentioned the various denominations and how there are those who have established the "Non-denomination" church. His question was "isn't that a denomination also?"

I thought it was a good question, because I never looked at it like that. I just thought that a group of people chose to worship other than the traditional or non-traditional ways. In a sense, it is a different group, choosing to worship with their own principles, doctrines, etc.

I know this really isn't the subject of the thread, but when I read your response, that question popped into my head.

Carry on...

I do agree with the Education part. Some of the ministers out there were hanging in front of the corner store on Monday, on Wednesday, they are in school, then Thursday, they are ordained and Sunday they open their church on Cook Street. I know, because one colleague did it basically like that and he couldn't preach to my pet ant (if I had one).
