Don't drill holes in your own shield!
Noted via RCR:
A theological brand is a fort. It forms a gathering place or sticking point for kindred souls. Now is NOT the time to be cutting windows in your distinct fort.
C of C is among the tiny handful of DECENTRALIZED religious groups that still have a faint 0.000000001% chance of holding off the infinite expansion of Satan. All the CENTRALIZED denominations have already surrendered. Some may idiotically believe that their surrender isn't total, but that's a delusion. Just wait a few weeks. Satan works FAST now.

Otter Creek is implementing something radical — at least, by Church of Christ standards: Allowing musical instruments into one of its Sunday services. It's such a switch for the 1,800-member, traditionally a cappella congregation in Brentwood [Tennessee] that its leadership team spent months deciding a strategy and will take months more implementing it.C of C has a distinct and coherent brand. It represents minimal austere Christianity, which is attractive to many people. Instrumentless singing is the most famous aspect of the brand, though it's not actually specified by scripture. Offkey a-capella signals C of C in the same way that white shirts and bicycles signal Mormonism or shrill arrogance signals Hinduism. When you see or hear the signal, you know who you're dealing with.
