I took a short survey at Church Planter Profiles yesterday. All I really wanted was the chance to win a $50 Amazon gift card, but I found the survey amusing. They did not seem to recognize that house churches are churches too. The survey was about buildings, budget, staff, and how quickly you reached 200 people.
Clearly, what they actually wanted is not “Church Planter Profiles” but “Megachurch Planter Profiles.” Apparently, that is the only way to properly do church.
I even found their homepage picture a little sad:
So apparently, God can only use you to plant a church if you fit this “unique combination of personality, gifting, ability, experience, and drive.” Otherwise, God can’t use you.
Well, I’m not one of them, but I’m still ready. How about it, God?
