Mega-Size that please.

The title is linked to an interesting article on the mega-church emphasis of our generation. It should be helpful it sparking discussion on the subject. Trends in church methodology come and go nearly as quickly as fashions change, but the part of the article about disconnecting the church from its spiritual heritage is a frightening thought. Although most trends come and go, it does not mean that one is not more dangerous than another.


In other news, I went to the State Fair yesterday with my family. Very few states can boast of a state fair as grand as Indiana's, for we know farming, cows, and pigs. I am a little shocked and slightly grossed out by the fact that they give an award to the World's Largest Boar every year, but it is one of those things that you simply have to see. This years winner, 1150 lbs! Unsurprisingly, I have yet to see any of the winners standing up. I am not sure such an award is healthy for anyone involved. The best part of the day was getting to be a part of the tractor parade at 6 PM. Every night there is a parade of classic tractors throughout the fair grounds. A man from Noblesville asked our family if we wanted to ride with him. He even hooked the Prices up with a ride in a wagon pulled by the tractor behind us. Kara and Tyler both got a chance to drive the 1948 Farmall. There is something very relaxing about being up on a tractor. Call me a hick, but it was the highlight of my day.
