Hiatus end.
Tonight was Tulsa's huge "Fight Night" with attendance up to 3,000 people hosted by GUTS church. Anyone willing can sign up to be placed in a boxing match with three one minute rounds, all of which takes place in a real boxing ring in the middle of the sanctuary. My favorite quotes that surfaced in regards to this christian event are:
Quote 1:
Meredith: "How did they tie Jesus and Christianity into the boxing when you went last year?"
Attendee:" ....I don't remember."
Quote 2:
(quote received from one who participated in one of the fights as we discovered that the video of his fight was accidently recorded over)
"Now I don't have a video to put on youtube!"
You have to love the American Church. In fact I believe it is the easiest thing in the world to love the American Church, and you wonder why? The reason is simply because the American Church has BECOME American. With our: sweet lights, comfortable chairs, boxing matches, masturbation messages, and huge egos, who wouldn't to join the damn club? The obsession with dressing up a walk with Christ with marketable strategies and benefits makes me so irritated to an extent that is very difficult to express.
To glorify one's self, to make your church the "Bad-Ass that hosts Fight Night" negates what you say you believe. Please let us all put our eyes on Christ, stop making ourselves so glorious, because in the end, no one is good compared to Him.
We are all hipsters.

I think I might make a jacket with the quote "We are all hipsters" on it.
