What if Starbucks Marketed Like a Church?

Since I am a confessing Starbucks junky, I found this youtube video rather unique. I'm not always keen on these kind of pop-culture critiques of the church. Frankly, I find them too quick to throw stones and too slow to catch any. Its kind of easy and convenient to step outside of the church and toss stones at it. It bit harder stand devoted to the church in active obedience, seeking for constructive ways to see its unity, purity and peace. That being said, I still kind of like this video. It's on to something--just take it with a big grain of salt.

Hello!

Hello. My name is David Vandervelde and I am the pastor of Bethel Reformed Church in Abbotsford, British Columbia, Canada. I have been pastor at Bethel Church for almost nine years. I am happily married to my wife Heather, and have two beautiful girls. Hannah is seven and Rebekah is five. I very much enjoy ministry. I like theology. I frequent starbucks, and spend a lot of time my family. I also have two cats. Well, that is about me.

Blessings, David
