Hello World,

Just when I thought I have lived long enough to see almost half of everything since I’m 42 years old, something happens to let me know God’s mercies are new every morning!!! According to the Daily Mail, a new church, “a Cinderella-like high-heeled shaped house of God made almost entirely out of glass,” is slated to open in Taiwan, before Feb. 8, the Chinese New Year! Made out of 320 pieces of blue glass, the church is 55 feet tall, 36 feet wide and was constructed in over two months. Not only is the design of the church supposed to appeal to female worshipers, the church will also have 100 feminine features such as “ chairs for ‘lovers,’ maple leaves, biscuits and cakes – all ideal for romantic photographs,” according to Zheng Rongfeng, spokesman of the Southwest Coast National Scenic Area, in the article.

Gives new meaning to the verse “I have become all things to all people so that by all possible means I might save some.” 1 Corinthians 9:22…Below is a video about the church…

And this is my reaction…

I don’t know what the stats are for Asian countries but stateside, there are more women going to church than men! According to ChurchForMen.com, “the typical U.S. Congregation draws an adult crowd that’s 61% female, 39% male. This gender gap shows up in all age categories,” and “this Sunday almost 25 percent of married, churchgoing women will worship without their husbands.”

Maybe Taiwan is on to something, would more men come to church if it was built like a giant football, a La-Z-Boy recliner or a flat-screen TV? I wonder what masculine features would make men swoon? Maybe chips and dip or wings and blue cheese would be served instead of communion? What if people yelled “Touchdown” instead of “Amen?” How about deaconnesses instead of deacons and they would wear high heels? The more I think about this, the more it seems that a Hooters restaurant would be ideal…

Men, what say you?

Any thoughts?
