several questions:


since Westside Church is in Omaha Nebraska and this



why are Omaha area congregants of Westside Church have to stay at a Hotel


why not use the church and instead of wasting money on staying at the Regency Lodge,



and that money Westside Church of Omaha Nebraska leaders and members could be saving


could have it go to Open Door Mission or the Lydia House or other charities in Omaha




something about this dont make sense





BTW: Westside Church and it's pastor Curt Dodd is part of the dubious Step Out and Serve 2009

not to mention Westside Church is one of over 2 dozen Omaha metro area churches that are part of the Willow Creek Association

something about Westside Church's actions for their 2009 Christmas Pageant Getaway has got me my head





what is everyone's take on this?


am I making a big deal out of nothing

or is there something wrong with this picture?

I don't know... having a "get away" in a hotel to discuss a ministry on preaching the gospel seems like a waste of money. My questions would be... does Westside actually the gospel of sin, repentance, and salvation through the belief in the ressurection of Jesus Christ and His eventual return while there or when they come back from the travel and entertainment? If so when? On the trip or when they come back from it? When does it actually happen?

I have went to churches that say they preach the gospel yet never seem to actually communicate it to people so that they can hear it and be saved from hell. Usually they just put a belief statement on their website and then just slap each other on the back on how pious they are and then hide away from the world in secret card game parties or other social events with only fellow "Christians" attending.
