"I grew up attending churches designed for church people. No one said it, but the assumption was that church was for church people. The unspoken message to the outside world was, "Once you start believing and behaving like us, you are welcome to join us.
The corollary of being a church for churched people was we had a tendency to be against everything unchurched people were for. We were against just about everything at one time or another. We were against certain genres of music, alcohol, the lottery, the equal rights amendment, gay people and Democrats!"
Doesn't sound that long ago to me?
