Dingle Arm?
I know he's speaking English, but he's not talking to me. He used these phrases, crudely concieved idea, basically, only new principal, simply and normal. In other words, if you don't understand what I'm saying than either you're a moron or this information is not for you.
We do the same thing at church, "Let's all sing that familiar hymn such and such." Familiar to whom? The world doesn't know the old hymns or the new hymns. I'm sorry, but most people don't know what a "sheave" even is, so why do we want to bring them in?
"Everyone knows about ole' Mephibosheth, well, we're just like him." Of course, if there aren't any guests at the church, than I guess we're o.k. with that, but what's the point in having church? I don't think it has as much to do with us as it does with reaching those outside of the four walls.
Remember, how you say what you say can make a difference in whether you should have said anything at all.

omg, that is so true. How many times have I heard a preacher say "We all know about . . . " whatever, when in truth we don't all know about it, especially when a visitor's in attendance, as you've said, and isn't that the point? It's kinda scary to think we sound like that dude on the videoclip to people we're supposed to be reaching out to.
he had me at hello....
