Lord, Please Bring More People Into Your Church!

bring more people cartoon by nakedpastor david hayward

A man kneels before a crucifix praying, "Please Lord, bring more people into your church!" Meanwhile, Jesus is standing with a crowd of LGBTQ+ people looking at his watch.

The good news is, "All are welcome!", not, "We are happy to show you all the requirements you have to meet before we let you in and fully participate."

Never better said! I believe that churches of these days are far from being what Jesus wanted them to be!

I certainly agree with your message! And wish you could expand that group behind Jesus to include more than LGBTQ folks.
