Final overview of Reggie McNeal’s day with us.

First, he was so full of one liners that pointed out the things that we have as core values that are not biblically based. I wish I could have kept up with him, but I was typing with my thumbs on my Treo.

Secondly, McNeal was not critical of the traditional church, but did pointedly point out that we seem to be tied to things that are not getting the job done and are not commanded us by Scripture.

Thirdly, you kind of have to be there to get him. He has a dry wit and even when you are there, if you aren’t paying attention, he will say things that won’t make sense to you because you either miss something else to which it was related, or you miss that he is being sarcastic (not bitterly sarcastic).

Finally, McNeal was so full of stories that illustrated his point, hearing the points alone can leave you without the punch that being there does.

The day was taped, though I saw several flips of the cassette (yes cassette, not digitally recorded) so I know we missed several things. I don’t know if the tape will be made available. If so, you should get it.
