Is Cold Still Cold?

Captain Bill got Coach Craig's team pumped last week in the OKC! For those new to BC, that means that Bill Hybels of Willow Creek fame spoke to Craig Groeschel's Lifechurch staff at their gathering in Oklahoma City. The Lifechurchers are a twittering and blogging kind of crowd so it was easy to get some of the highlights. One line consistently shows up at all the cool kids blogs and twits (tweets?) The gray haired patriarch, our leading man in leadership declared the death of cool or as he succinctly put it, "Cool isn't cool anymore." Is this as profound as it sounds or is it one of those things (see the comment on the Brother Bell post) that sounds good until you think about it? We're undecided except on this point. Jesus is still cool. The church, well, yes, the church has been death to cool since Acts so maybe Captain B has a point.
