Adventures in Churchland: finding Jesus in the mess of origanized religion

Foreword / Wanda Jackson

Introduction : I love the church, despite the mess

Part one : Churchland. Welcome to churchland

Churchland, the musical

I wouldn't like Christians if I weren't one

I see mean people

Ovaltine, the Bible, and elderly ladies fighting in the basement

Cannibals and creepy pastors

Part two : Finding beauty in the mess. You have heard it said : the church is judgmental and negative

Judging like Jesus

But Jesus says : the church is a positive agent of change

You have heard it said : the church is an organized religion that controls people

Angry Jesus with a whip, freeing birds

But Jesus says : the church is an organized community that serves people

Part three : Graceland. Escaping churchland

Beyond our own personal Jesus

Johnny Cash and Jesus

What is the church?

Messy people, messy church

From churchland to graceland

Epilogue : Do you like Jesus but not the church?
