Would You Attend a Drive In Church Service?


The church is the people... right? The building doesn't really matter, or does it? That is what we say to ourselves, when in reality it is nice to have a pew to sit in and a pulpit to look at. Well this church in Texas has chosen to eliminate all of that and you can literally drive in church. That's right! You can pull up, just as you would at a drive in movie, and enjoy the service right in your car. So with the world and church continually changing, would you be open to attending a drive in church service? Take a look at the article and video clip below and tell us your thoughts.

Texas pastor opens drive-in church

A pastor outside Dallas has launched a drive-in church that operates along the same lines as a drive-in movie theater: Congregants stay in their vehicles and tune in to the sermon on their car radios.
Sanctuary Under the Sky, which meets in a high school parking lot in Lucas, Texas, is the third outdoor church launched by Pastor David Ray, according to CNN Dallas/Fort Worth affiliate WFAA.
Ray, a Presbyterian, told WFAA that he's trying to reach the unchurched and that he believes Jesus would approve of his approach.
"I think he would like it. His stuff was outdoors," Ray said. "A lot of trouble he had was indoors."
One congregant who attended the service on Sunday told WFAA that she's not a fan of mega-churches, preferring to worship alone.
