imonk hits the nail right on the head

...as usual, with this thoughtful post on what many people are looking for in a church. An excerpt:

We long to be loved, to be quietly accepted, to be told to lie down in green pastures, to stop the race, to pray in silence. To be given a spirituality of dignity, not a spirituality that is a feature of this week’s sermon series on how to have more sex, make more money, have better kids, smile more, achieve great things and otherwise turn the salvation of Jesus into a means to an American end.

Be sure to read the whole thing.
