Thousands showed up this past Sunday thinking that the Barnum and Bailey Circus was simply another new church plant. A spokesperson for the circus said that those that came said they plan to come back and attend next Sunday. When they were informed it was not church but rather a circus those attending were shocked. People said how grateful they were to be entertained and made to feel good. Another person when questioned said yeah "we don't want to think about eternity and things like heaven or hell until we get there." Another said the only difference between the circus and his church was that the pastor at his church was a much better clown!
