Mich. Church Gives Charlie Sheen Strategy for ‘Winning’
A big house. Cars. Money. All are held in high esteem in everyday life. People who attain such riches are, in the words of actor Charlie Sheen, "winning." But NorthRidge Church launched a new campaign for Easter to demonstrate a different kind of winning.
"We believe that Charlie Sheen is not alone in presenting a concept of what genuine winning is all about," says Brad Powell, senior pastor of Northridge Church in Plymouth, Mich. "Our culture tends to get it wrong as well. We want to present what we believe to be a true path to winning."
NorthRidge is promoting itself as a church committed to sharing the truth of Christ which sets people free and gives them hope. And, Easter is the ultimate celebration of that truth and hope. When you put them together, Powell figures, then you can genuinely experience "winning." As Powell sees it, anything else is, to put it bluntly, a false promise, at best an illusion.
