Church Buildings

I flew back to Minnesota this last Thursday to see my roommate from freshman year get married. The church they chose was really cool looking, almost more like an old theater than anything I would think of as a church. (Sorry mom. There was no stained glass.) The sanctuary was actually on the second floor of the building, up a very plain set of wooden stairs.

The building was perfect for them, even if I did have a hard time picturing a church service happening here every Sunday. To add to the oddity of it all, this is the River of Life Church. Say what?

Of course, that might have something to do with the fact that my church looks more like this in the sanctuary, although the walls have been re-painted/sound foamed, and the metal cross out front is about as architecturally fancy as we get. Perhaps I'm the one confused about what looks like a theater and what looks like a church!
