Church and Change Conference
502.... A Movie is Worth a Million Words
Pastor Nathan Krause
(nckrause1@verizon.net)
In this day and age of visual communication and entertainment there is no better way to leave a lasting impression with worshippers and group attendees than with the perfect movie clip. Learn how to find, manipulate and use video clips for worship and presentations. Nathan Krause has been honing his experience with the use of visual message delivery and movie clips for the past eight years, serving Abiding Shepherd in Cottage Grove, WI—an ELS mission congregation that has grown to almost 300 members.
Previous post on this topic.
Norm Teigen thanked God that the ELS did not have Church and Change, but he soon found out that Nathan Krause, ELS, was tight with Church and Chicanery, giving talks for them, and modeling his ELS congregation along the same lines. One photo featured a huge screen in the front.
Norm got the spin from the Little Vatican on the Prairie. "They are just experimenting."
That is one of the key points taught by Arn in how to get Church Growth established in the face of opposition. "Tell the rubes that you are just experimenting."
So the ELS is experimenting with sects and claiming they practice safe sects.
The ELS also practices telescopic orthodoxy. They see doctrinal error miles away but never in their own fellowship. Jay Webber was horrified that the Wisconsin Sect was allowing women to celebrate communion, but was he equally appalled at the ELS with its little Church and Change mission? Supposedly he was against all that years ago. Why not show some spine on the doctrinal board and shut down the Baptist missions in the ELS?

Krause's mission statement was borrowed from a Scottsdale plastic surgeon:
BRING THEM IN!
LIFT THEM UP!
SEND THEM OUT!

GJ - Norm Teigen has some cheerful, patient comments about this posting. By the way, Norm's name did not disappear from the template over some conflict. The template would not allow Advent services and his name, so the Means of Grace trumped blog friendship. He will return as proof-reader, except during Lent.
Norm, and ELS members, I think everyone should be alarmed about any connection with Church and Chicanery. The glue holding that group together is loathing for and ignorance of Lutheran doctrine.
