Bit of honesty

I've blogged before about what success means in the context of church. A few conversations recently have raised the question as to whether churches that present as 'successful' are actually all that attractive (especially if they don't live up to the reputation). I'd much prefer to go to a church that said it knew it wasn't very good at being church, but was trying to grow, and would welcome me joining the project. The integrity would appeal to me.
