How true Terry, and I heard this very thing spoken by a full-timer the last time I visited the LC -- "if you just want Sunday morning religion, you can go to church down the street."

I'm sitting there thinking, "that's one more myth propagated by the LC. The fact is that there is not a single Christian assembly in the world which could operate with just Sunday morning visitors." Every congregation is propelled forward by a core of saints serving night and day. Don't kid yourself. And, btw, the LC had the same number of "Sunday morning visitors" as the next church.

It just amazes me how much "mythology" gets promoted in the LC's.
