Seeker friendly. Some Christians see it as redeeming a culturally disconnected religion. Some Christians see it as an indicator of the apostate church (the anti-church). Perhaps there is another alternative perspective.
Why I'm OK with a "seeker friendly" service:
The American church generally stinks at reaching new people. We can't even get the Great Commission accomplished in our own neighborhoods!
Why I'm not OK with a "seeker friendly" service:
Offering the world a non-confrontational gospel defies the nature of the gospel. True "seekers" are seeking the true and the authentic. People for whom a partial Christianity will suffice are seeking a conscious-salve that is not available in Jesus Christ. (See the story of the Rich Young Ruler.)
