Religion columnist Terry Mattingly
describes the Christmas preparations of Willow Creek Church, which do
not include services on Christmas Day.
During the last five
days before Christmas, at least 55,000 people were planning to attend
the eight multi-media worship services at Willow Creek Community Church.
The leaders of this famous
megachurch outside Chicago can be precise about this number because
that is how many people had, at mid-week, visited WillowCreek.org and
claimed seats in the 7,200-seat auditorium. A few solo seats remained.
