IS YOUR CHURCH SELLING PIZZA LOAF ?

We are different.

You still didn’t hear me. WE ARE DIFFERENT!

For some reason many people have a problem with this. Stop for a second and ask yourself, “Do I know anyone who is different?” There is probably at least one person that sticks out in your head. How do you think that same person would answer that same question? Their answer might be you. The point is we are all different.

Question for you?
- If you invited a 60 year old person over for dinner what would you prepare?
- If you invited a 20 year old person over for dinner what would you prepare?


Are they different? Why are they different?

Have you ever had a 60 year old over for dinner and then proceeded to order pizza? Don’t get me wrong I personally know a lot of 60 year old people who love pizza. However, after they ate the pizza, did they get on the phone and tell their friends? Did they go around town saying what a wonderful dinner they had? Did they long for the opportunity to come over again because of the pizza?

Did they eat? Yes. Were they feed? Yes. Are they selling it to others? Um.

Have you ever had some 20 to 30 year old people over for dinner and served them a formal meal? Meatloaf, Broccoli, Beets, Strawberry Shortcake, and maybe some after dinner coffee. Again, don’t get me wrong I personally enjoy many of these foods but oh, wait a minute, it’s not about me. Anyhow, after they ate the dinner, did they get on the phone and tell their friends? Did they go around town saying what a wonderful dinner they had? Did they long for the opportunity to come over again because of the food?

Did they eat? Yes. Were they feed? Yes. Are they selling it to others? Um.


Do you think the answer is to invite everyone over and make PIZZALOAF?

Quick Notes:
- Many people like Meatloaf and Pizza.

- Don’t make Pizza loaf and try to convince people it’s good.

- If you make Meatloaf, take it to a whole nutha level.

- If you make Pizza, take it to a whole nutha level.

- If you make Pizza loaf, your not really pleasing anyone.

- Neither party is wrong. But you can make them resent each other when serving Pizza loaf.

- Don’t think because you love Pizza or Meatloaf that everyone else does.

- If you aren’t eating it, stop trying to sell it.

- Please, please, please remember that people today have too many options and most see facing conflict as a waste of time. If people don’t like it, they are not going to take the time to tell you, they just won’t come back.


How many of you read Pizza loaf and thought it sounded disgusting?

I agree, so stop serving it.

OUT!
