Church in a Bar

.
I hate to post two videos from the same source two days in a row, but this short story from Little Rock, Arkansas, caught my attention. There is a great debate ongoing in the church about whether or not the "traditional" church building and "traditional" church service is hindering church attendance, especially among the younger generations. The argument is that instead of waiting for people to come to the church building, the church should go to where the people are (and meet their needs where they are). This seems to be the "Jesus model" of ministry, though it must also be noted that our Lord spent His fair share of time in the synagogue, which was the "traditional church" of the day.

Anyway, an Arkansas pastor is seeking to take church "to the people" by holding services in a bar. Here's the short story from CNN.com. Feel free to comment below.
