"Bar Band"

So for the next three weeks I'm comparing the Church to a band in the "Rock Band" Series...and it made me think. If actionchurch were a Rock Band, what kind of band would we be? The answer is... A "nineties" boy band, with matching outfits, "tight" harmonies, and choreographed dance moves! (Sorry just a "dream" of mine...I can't believe I said that out loud)

Actually, If actionchurch were a band, we would be...a Bar Band!

• a band of "ordinary guys"(and gals!) who practice after work and show up on the weekend to Rock!
• a band that expects to carry their own equipment...
• a band that is always looking to play bigger clubs...to attract a bigger following...but wouldn't think of "selling out" to get there...
• a band used to having the occasional insult (or bottle) flung their way...
• a band that realizes they "aren't stars"...
• a band that appreciates the fact that they get to do what they love, because of the people who come out each weekend to hear them...
• Finally... a band who's "sum is truly greater than it's parts"... a band that is surprises every one who "knows them" individually when they see them together under the lights. That's the power of a band...and even more so...The Church!

...and upon this rock I will build my church, and all the powers of hell will not conquer it. Mathew 16:18
