A Google alert this morning tells me that Jerry Garcia is doing a concert at one of our churches. That brought a smile to my face. I imagine the guy jokes about his more well-known (and drug-infested) namesake. There’s a picture of him. Clean cut, no beard. Definitely not a wannabe.
It did make me think how “Grateful Dead” is probably a good term for a lot of churches. Happy to be keeping the doors open, but few life signs.
