Southridge Community Church

It\'s been said recently that trust is less like a bank account, where you deposit trust points to be withdrawn at a later time, and more like a water balloon, where even the tiniest pin-prick will slowly drain the whole thing and prevent it from every being refilled. If this is true, the church has a big problem. Decades of cover-ups, scandals, televangelists selling miracles, and pastors living in mansions and flying private jets has left the aftertaste of distrust in the mouths of most people who talk about the church. So where do we go from here? Can a church that puts its money where its mouth is hope to earn a new reputation based on transparency and trustworthiness?
