A rose is a rose is a rose........Maybe???

Many of us go to a church named for a Venerated Saint or an important person. Everyone has heard of St. Paul's and St. Peter's, for example. But, of course there at a lot of St. Mark's and St. Andrew's, too.
Some of  us attend a church named for it's location. There is the Grandview United Methodist Church....located in Grandview, MO, and Terrace Lake, located in the Terrace Lake Subdivision.
Other churches are numbered. In Kansas City, there is a Second Presbyterian Church. Obviously, it was the second Presbyterian Church in town. I think I've seen a Fourth Baptist Church, somewhere, and we all know of many "First" churches.

All of that noted, please read the following two lists: #1. Elevation, The Connection, The Gathering, Renaissance, Resurrection, Revolution. #2. Revolution, Propulsion, The Wall, Genesis, Force, The Power.
The words on one of those lists are actual sports teams (I got them on the Internet.). The other list (off the Internet, again) contains names of new "Start-up" Churches. 

What's my point? I'm not sure. Are names that important to church attendance? Will  folks be more likely to join "Wellspring" or "The First Baptist Church"? Do I want to belong to a sports team or testify to my Faith?

Lord: You must get such a kick out of your family. We sure are a funny bunch. You know (and we should, too) that it's the folks inside our churches that draw new believers to You.  Help us to be enthusiastic and lively Christians. Your Word is a three-pointer! Our Faith needs to be a touch-down! Your Grace and Mercy should be our Goal! Your steadfast love is a home run.
