Bad Vestments: GIANT DEAD SPIDER:
I guess you could call this the ultimate bad vestment. But it seems that the former cathedral of the Episcopal Diocese of Western Michigan (AKA Far And Away The Ugliest Church Building In The Entire History Of Christianity From The Ascension Of Christ Into Heaven Until The Present Day) has been memorialized in a book.

GJ - Mrs. Ichabod and I were inside this church for an LCA installation. The interior is not ghastly, but the outside is a nightmare. This photo makes it look better than it appears live.
The diocese got so low in funds that they sold this to some sect.

Vestments: GIANT DEAD SPIDER. Kalamazoo, Michi...":
I could never
have guessed church architecture got this bad. This puts that WELS church
eyesore in Columbus, Ohio, to shame--the one that got torn down in order to
build a gas station/convenience store. Dr. Jackson knows the one I mean.

GJ - Shepherd of Peace? That was the work of Norm Berg and Company. But no one dared make fun of it - badly built, badly designed, badly conceived, and overpriced. I am told the wrecking crane took one poke at it and the building went down faster than a UOJ argument.
ICHABOD, THE GLORY HAS DEPARTED - explores the Age of Apostasy, predicted in 2 Thessalonians 2:3, to attack Objective Faithless Justification, Church Growth Clowns, and their ringmasters. The antidote to these poisons is trusting the efficacious Word in the Means of Grace. John 16:8. Isaiah 55:8ff. Romans 10. Most readers are WELS, LCMS, ELS, or ELCA. This blog also covers the Roman Catholic Church, Eastern Orthodoxy, and the Left-wing, National Council of Churches denominations.
