<p>The world is full of good-hearted heathens, those who love people and those who want to do good in the world. They&rsquo;re not against God&mdash;they just have no use for church. Church is boring and hypocritical. &nbsp;Plus, who wants to sit through a sermon every week? But while organized religion doesn&rsquo;t appeal to them, these heathens long for a connection to something bigger than themselves: meaning, community, mission.</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Pastor Jerry Herships leads a church-ish community full of good-hearted heathens. They may hate church, but they love sitting around a bar talking about what really matters and doing some good for their city&rsquo;s poorest residents. Herships takes that experience and absolves other former churchgoers of their guilt. No, you don&rsquo;t have to go to church to love and serve God. Yes, God still loves you and wants to help you love the world.</p>
