Looking to Start a Fight

Hey Pastor! Yeah you! The one over there sipping on the Frappacino with the black thick frame glasses reading the latest edition of Relevant. Yeah, I'm looking at you. You are the same pastor who has been thinking about getting a tattoo of some Greek or Hebrew text written on your arm or chest? Right? You are the preacher who listens to U2 and David Crowder while writing bullet points for your latest sermon? Ok, good, thought so...

Are things boring in your church? Do you need to add some zest to your congregants? How about starting a fight within your church? Starting a fight is a fail proof way to to get your parishioners and outsiders alike talking about your church. Here are three fail proof ways to start a squabble within your church:

• when you tell them what they can or can not sing
• when you tell them what they can or can not wear
• when you tell them what they should give

If your church doesn't bite at any of these attempts there is always:

• relocating the church
• changing the church name

Good luck breaking status quo, traditions, and the way its always been...
