In New Orleans, Pastor Debra Morton of Greater St. Stephen Full Gospel Baptist Church has canceled her congregation’s monthly Sunday night communion service...Two weeks ago, hemmed in by logistics that couldn’t be changed, her congregation and its guests reoccupied their storm-damaged sanctuary in eastern New Orleans more or less as the Saints and the Vikings squared off....She made it a little easier then by providing televisions in a nearby reception area — “but I dare not challenge them again” with another conflict, she said with a laugh Tuesday....Over 130 million
American adults are expected to tune into this Sunday’s NFL championship between the Indianapolis Colts and the New Orleans Saints in Super Bowl XLIV... Some three quarters of all men will watch, and more than half of American women as well–numbers that many churches would love to see on any given Sunday....I believe for the church of today to fight and win we must realize what we are up against. We got to be able to look beyond the obvious and see the real! SATAN is not a joke.Question: What are your thoughts on churches canceling services for the Super Bowl?
