Right. We should pray-read Paul's epistles, including the parts where he encouraged us to sing Psalms, remember the poor, etc. But if leadership isn't actually recommending that we do any of it, we'd better not take initiative. Yep, it's all Hunky Dory in LC-land: we can pray-read it, then we can ignore it.
