4. It’s unfortunate, but somebody has to say it: You’ve already got the perfect church. Seriously. • Are you available at 10am every Sunday? • Do you have twenty or more people in a room? • A few people to play music and sermonize? • Well, mix together, stir gently, and let sit until lukewarm. • Voila! Church is served. It’s the perfect recipe. And even though people have tried to improve it for over two centuries, it can’t get any better. Sure, some have made it bigger batches: anywhere from 20 servings up to 47,000 servings. But it’s still the same tried and true recipe. Our goal is not necessarily to help you do church better, most of you have that part down fine. (Although, we do help you improve on all the basics.) Our goal, since we’ve already established a metaphor, is to help bring everyone to the table. What good is church if there is not enough helpings to go around? Handing out invitations, getting everyone helped, and making sure there’s enough servings: this is the work of community.
