*This post is from the defunct blog “Dying Church”*

From [The Gospel-Driven Church](http://www.gospeldrivenchurch.blogspot.com/?ref=dashhouse.com), [27 Theses](http://gospeldrivenchurch.blogspot.com/2007/08/post-it-theses-for-these-newfangled.html?ref=dashhouse.com) including these:

> 10\. If the entirety of your churchy desires consists of filling a seat to experience a good service, you are not a congregant in a church but a consumer at a concert.

> 11\. What you win people with is what you win them to. Win people with flash, spectacle, presentation, etc., and that’s what you win them to. Don’t be surprised if, like all consumers and what attracts them, they eventually get tired and move on to the next attraction. Don’t be surprised if, provided they remain, they continually request more, better, higher . . .

> 16\. You cannot program a church into success. Programs are great, but they are applications. They are the “how” of doing church. Give up the tyranny of results and start with the “what” and “why” questions first.
