May I Have the List Please...

Lists. It seems like everyone is doing a list these days. Here are some examples (funny...this is a list!):
  • The "to-do" list
  • The grocery list
  • The Christmas list
  • Forbes richest list
  • David Letterman's Top 10 List
  • Time's Most Important List
  • Mr. Blackwell's "best and worst" dressed list
and on...and on...and on...

Churchrelevance is getting in on the action as well. They recently published the "Top 22 Churches In America." This list is based on 7 other lists (HEY! Another list! Kind of ironic isn't it?):
They also have a list of over 250 "churches to watch." Obviously they haven't checked out Meadow Heights (insert smiley face here)! The bigger question is this - why do people love lists? Do you enjoy reading "lists?"

For the record, there are many folks out there who don't enjoy lists. You can check out two from LifeChurch.tv - this post by Bobby Gruenewald, and this post by Craig Groeschel.

Can I get a list anyone?
