And they want the proverb

 And they want the church to show them a better way in which to live.

 I do not believe in the creed professed by the Jewish church, by the Roman church, by the Greek church, by the Turkish church, by the Protestant church, nor by any church that I know of. My own mind is my own church.
  Thomas Paine

 Church isn’t where you meet. Church isn’t a building. Church is what you do. Church is who you are. Church is the human outworking of the person of Jesus Christ. Let’s not go to Church, let’s be the Church.

 I do not believe for us as Lutherans, human sexuality is a church-defining or church-dividing issue, ... We can live with some ambiguity about these questions.

 We try to reach out to the kids. Surprisingly, a lot of the older church folks show us support. They say, 'Hey, whatever it takes to get the young people in the church ...' because they see the need.

 We've asked the congregation a lot of different things during this period, getting opinions, because we want the whole body to be working toward the same goals. And we believe that the church should get outside its walls and reach out into the community and meet needs of people that live around the church and in the same town, as well as other places beyond our boundaries.

 Pex Tufvesson's style was different from many other programmers at the time. The Episcopal Church is the Anglican church, or church of England, in America. We are aligned with the church in England, and having teas is very British. Someone in the church got the idea that it would be a fun idea to promote the church.

 If that's going to be the policy of the church as the church seeks to be its best self, then I'm going to accept what the church tells me, ... On the other hand, I would have an awful lot of compassion for men who are holy, celibate, chaste and who are homosexual and have served the church well.

 I live here in Seymour and my daughter and I are very active in our church. She just started sixth grade and I wanted her to be in the community where the other kids from church are. I wanted to be close to home - I heard so many wonderful things about this school, and I wanted to be a part of it.

 I had some God experiences where I said, 'Wow.' I didn't have anyone else to turn to but God. There were times when I embraced my faith and made it my own. Now I embrace the church, not as some arm that's trying to control my life, but allowing me to live the life I've been created to live.

 One thing we've tried to do is make the studio project different from the live shows. It's a different side of the band. Live, we do a lot of improvisation, we're all over the place. On the album we tried to keep things concise. A lot of people will think it's a curve ball. It's not what you would expect if you are familiar with our live show.

 We want to live a simple life, ... I want to emphasize I'm not an environmentalist who goes to church. I want my principal identity as a Christian to be someone who follows Jesus. I want to work for peace and justice, care for God's environment, be a good neighbor and friend and live the right life.

 A lot of people up there will have lost everything, and be struggling to come back and, you know, this is a faith-based music. When they come in there, they talk about having church. So it's not a church -- but it's a place where you have church.

 I think seeing the church burn like that -- some of the hearts of some of the parishioners who have been there a long time went up in flames like the church. We know that we are the church. We the congregation, we are the body. We're intact.

 I bought three suits from him earlier. There is an image that goes with going to church. . . . It is a tradition that we have in the black church. . . . We have to go to church presentable as well, because people should recognize that we are worshipping.
