What Should a Church Look Like?

Yesterday, I came across a blog entry that speaks to some of the same issues I am raising in the first two parts of our current sermon series "Quo Vadimus: Where Are We Going?"  Another pastor writes about how many congregations misconstrue who they are by comparing themselves to unrealistic expectations -- this too, is a huge challenge for the present church.  As we imagine who we can be, we need to make sure that our what we are striving for is actually healthy.

You can read about "Barbie Doll Churches" here.  It raises a serious question in a funny way: What does a beautiful church look like?
