Joe Krohn, who is best buds with Patterson, bragged that Doebler is OK with the Conference of Pussycats, that Rock and Roll got another grant.
The grapevine tells me the grant from the Antioch Foundation was not as juicy as applied for. Rock and Roll got $20,000, which was either 20% or only 10% of what they applied for. Doubtless they studied the grantsmanship lessons hard at the last Church and Chicanery conference. But alas, Antioch is not Texas-oriented and everyone is short on cash.
So maybe Joe was providing spin on the Rock and Roll story.
I can never remember the exact URL of Rock and Roll, so I use the original URL, churchfromscratch.net. That still goes automatically to the fancy-dancy website.
Ski's is even fancier, with Flash movies.
Both WELS pastors are copying sermons series from non-Lutherans. But that is not news, is it?
