Down by half. Now given my own "tribe's" difficulties in gaining men for Christ, I ought not gloat, but I am reminded of how when my mother was fighting cancer, the books on her reading stand changed from United Methodist to more evangelical. There are only so many ways a movement can say "we don't believe what the Bible says" before people are done with it.

And so sad to see all those beautiful, dead buildings out there.

Aspiring to be a stick in the mud.
