    In a day where thousands are fleeing the church, no longer feeling it relevant. This message it meant to remind us that Jesus was against organized religion, but he is not against the church being decent and in order. In fact he created it that way.

    This mornings message is titled - “Jesus loves the organized Church” Now that might to some sound silly.
