My friend Mike over at Rural Route Church, is a Rural Church advocate. His zeal for God’s glory displayed in our often ignored, smaller, rural churches that work in the fringes of a society that is increasingly suburban and urban. His passion is on display regularly at his blog, and it seems obvious that God has placed this fire in him concerning rural churches.
Though not nearly as passionate as Mike, I do share his concern on this issue. He currently has a series of posts on his blog about “Killers” in the rural church. We may not agree on every detail, but we certainly value the same God, the same ministry, and similar contexts. I believe some of his analysis is spot on, and so I would encourage you to stop by his blog, and take a look at the first 3 killers. To some extent I relate to all 3, and look forward to the other 7 out a 10 part series.
