So an evil thief decides to steal 75% of your church’s stuff…
What would you do?
This is what Kinetic Church (kineticchurch.com) of Charlotte, North Carolina did:
It is edgy and maybe even a little bit gritty. They are communicating with the thief and the community at large in a humorous way that it is not good to steal from a church.
But more than that, when you go to their website or stumble on the YouTube video you find that behind this billboard is a message that is divine.
This made me weep.
This made me happy to be a Christian. The church reached out and extended themselves to sinners. The church forgave like Jesus forgave. This is beautiful and so good that it is inspiring. This is the radical forgiveness that Jesus requires.
I want to be this forgiving…
