Click here to view and article based on recent data collected and released about the changing religious landscape in North America. It is an interesting article but I find it a little disturbing that the metaphor/language that is used for describing those who are spiritual is one of consumer/provider. According to the article, we live in a "dynamic religious marketplace" that is "highly competitive."
I guess my point is this, it is only a competitive marketplace if you are by design setting forth a product for public consumption. If we are in the transformation and impact in the world business, then the whole language of competition, marketing, attraction, etc, goes out the window. Anyone else see some mustache hair measuring here?

A very bright man I know once explained that we are all a part of the same church...Christ's Church. With this in mind, we are all on the same team...there is no competition between us.
