First Church!

Filed under: Cultural Commentary, Denomination Wars — kristy @ 09:10:45 pm

Leander and I are sitting here looking at the Google results for "church in boston, ma."

There are lots and lots of First *insert denomination name here* churches. One of the listings is Twelfth Baptist Church. I can't imagine how that makes the parishioners feel to know that in the world of Old North Church and Old South Church and the Christian Science mega-church that their church's claim to fame is just being the twelfth Baptist church in Boston.

It made me think that planting the first church in an area must be kind of like, "First post!!!!!111bbq"
