This was a pretty witty little ditty! Read the whole thing....
Ecclesiophilist: Concerning Announcements:
A Sample: "Earnestly desire such announcements, but especially that you may read the bulletin. Announcements are of some value but the bulletin is greater. For now we announce in part and we know in part. But the bulletin gives full and detailed information so that your knowledge of ministry happenings may be complete. One who makes an announcement edifies a particular ministry. But the bulletin edifies the whole church. So then my brethren, listen to the announcements but do not neglect the bulletin."
Yep, I always got the feeling that Paul was beating around the bush in 1 Corinthians. It's satisfying to know what he was really getting at!
