Jesus VS. Christians (Again...)

This past weekend we began our One Prayer series and my prayer for The Orchard and for the church at large was, "Make Us Irreplaceable." 

As a part of my talk, I showed this video that we originally created and used in early 2007.  The video is straightforward, bothersome, and quite revealing as it illustrates a huge gap between how people view Jesus and how they view the people who are supposed to be representing him.

(And just so you know, the video was not edited to make a point.  In the 45 minutes of interviews, we did not receive ONE positive comment for the second half of the video.)
