Church should feel good
Church should feel good avatar

It’s one of my basic convictions: Church should feel good.  I know, I know — not with shallow, frothy, glib entertainment.  But the alternative to that foolishness is not “This is for your own good”-screaming negativity.

Real, solid church should feel good.  Why?  For starters, at church we preachers get to “bring good news of happiness” (Isaiah 52:7) to sinners, and freely because of Jesus.  That really feels good.

It sure felt good today.
