Cats or Dogs?

Are you a cat or a dog when it comes to church? Let me explain, when you feed, pet, play with, and love a dog...the dog thinks, "Wow - you must be God!" When you feed, pet, play with, and love a cat...the cat thinks, "Wow - I must be God!" People that are passionately in love with Jesus (dog people) come to church excited about how they can worship and serve God and others--even if something is new or different, because it's not about them, it's about Jesus. People that are passionately in love with themselves (cat people) come to church excited about how the sermon is going to speak to them, and wondering if the worship is going to be good. We want the sermon to be relevant and touch people's lives, and we want the music to help us pour our hearts out to Jesus...but for a cat, they judge a service (and the church) by how well they were ministered to instead of how well they were able to worship God and minister to others. If there is a new song or if the music was too loud or if the pastor said something that was too edgy or challenging, then a cat walks away frustrated, complaining, and possibly even leaving or causing dissension among the body.

This sheds a whole new light on the fact that, "All dogs go to heaven!" :)
