Scary thought, huh. I read this article in my local paper(the link is actually to one not my local paper, but could not find it in the online edition. Sorry about that Shreveport Times) yesterday and couldn't believe what I was reading. 500 Street Preachers with the Great News Network are out to do what the president of the organization calls a "city invasion." It looks like they are heading to Deep Ellum. Oh boy. I can't imagine how that will go over and wish I could be there to watch the propositional, conquest-you methodology clash with the postmodern, bohemian culture of Deep Ellum. The mindset of this group is clear, as seen in the use of words like "boot camp," and "invasion." I regret thinking of the damage that will be done for the cause of Christ to the churches in the area who understand the Deep Ellum folks and who are trying to overcome just this kind of stereotype of Christians. And yes, the group also will be passing out those goofy $1 million bills, which really are tracts. Yeah, that will be effective. street preaching
