The Early Church vs. The American Church: A New Perspective.

Here's a great post from Larry Osborne on the future of the Church in America. In it, he uses a really awesomely unique perspective from the book of Acts. This post really convicted me. I think i (and many others in my generation) tend to be very critical of the Church in America, and i love to point out problems, but never offer any solutions. Sometimes i tend to hold up the early Church in the New Testament as what we should aim for and the model we should pursue. But, as Larry points out, the early Church was far from perfect, too. They had just as many flaws as we do in the Church today, just not in the same ways most of the time. So go read that. It'll be well worth your time.
