Church PR obfuscation?

They are busy stearing this great ship ( the church ) and are not all that aware of every wind (word) that fill the sails and buffets the ship as it sails on it’s journey. I think we can paraphrase Ben Frainklin, the Lord who notices every sparrow that falls from the branch, could hardly fail to notice the progress of his church as it goes forth.

I agree jeriboy. I also think it is worthwhile for people to question their words when they speak out or choose not to speak out because it keeps them honest in evaluating their messages to the masses. There are 2 parts to the leadership role: 1) Steering the ship in the right direction; 2) Taking care of the crew and passengers to help them accept the direction they are all going in is the right one.

If you have a great message, but no one buys into it… it is of little value. I think the church has tried to be more open in the media and open to dialogue more this past 10 years than ever before. But, like what Hawkgrrrl said, that doesn’t mean they communicate well…which begs the question is it better to stay silent, or try your hand at public relations knowing it will cause reaction?
