Vitality and Renewal  In Cascades
Life Cycles of a Congregation
I am old fashioned in that I like to read the newspaper. I like to sit down in the morning and hold the newspaper in my hand and read the various sections. One of my favorite sections is the comics and one of my favorite comics is Dilbert.  Fellow Mensan Scott Adams uses the antics of an unnamed company with an unnamed pointy-headed boss to poke fun at corporations in America. And I find that much of what he describes in the world of business can also be applied to the world of the church.  Take this example from a Sunday comic printed earlier this fall.
