Is there a baby-boomer version of Rob Bell of Mars Hill Church in Grandville,MI ?
December 09, 2007
As I dawdle in getting ready for church this morning, I read this Time story about Rob Bell, the founding pastor of Mars Hill Church in Grandville,MI. Interesting.
He packs an old shopping center with more than 11,000 young worshippers every week. When starting Mars Hill, Bell was urged over and over again to give people the real thing. I take that to mean showing how life is lived as a Christian in the real world.
What effect is this young pastor having? Are his congregants living out their faith in and around the Grand Rapids area?
Who's the Rob Bell of the baby-boomer set of which I am a member?
