006 An Advent Carol week 1: The Ghost of Jacob Marley prophesies to the institutional church, Truman, and a box of wineThis week, the first week of Advent, we discuss our Advent podcast theme: Scrooge and the Church.We back up our claim that, in A Christmas Carol, the character of Scrooge really is just like the Church institution today...we drink boxed wine for the first time on the podcast, give away FREE Church Hoppers Podcast shot glasses, and learn big lessons from a little 4 year old named Truman. Then, heeding the warning of Jacob Marley to Scrooge, we talk about the dilemma the Church faces today: to either be transformed into a voice of authenticity and truth, or to be dismissed by an entire generation of Christians and spiritual pilgrims and seekers.Would you like to be the next person to get a FREE, one of a kind, no alcohol included, Church Hoppers Podcast shot glass?  Well, get yours today while supplies last...just share our Episode status update from the Church Hoppers Podcast Facebook page and then message the page with an address for us to ship your shot glass!
