					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://brianharrisauthor.com/is-church-working-for-you/#comment-33673&quot;&gt;Jim Beaudoin&lt;/a&gt;.

It does indeed Jim, but in fairness some have gone in with open hearts and real enthusiasm and then been hurt or disappointed along the way, and some have grown weary. 
There are some encouraging signs (and we actually had a great service at my local church this morning), and I am pleased people are more willing to explore different but faithful models of being church. ]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Thank you Brian for your insights and once again your finger is on the pulse!  People will find genuine sincere warmth and joy if they seek and contribute that which they seek, but if they just expect it to happen they will likely be disappointed.  It starts with the posture of our heart doesn&#039;t it?

Thank you!]]></description>
