What if?

What if the local church was the place that created the best art in the community?
What if the local church was the place where every musician wanted to play on Sunday morning because the church honored them more, provided them with the better equipment, and had better audiences than anywhere in town?
What if the local church was known for telling the best stories in the community through what they wrote, what they said, and how they lived?
What if the local church displayed the best art in the community on its walls because the best art in the community came from inside the local church?
What if the local church became the place where actors lined up at the door because the best productions that told the best stories in the most compelling ways regularly occured on the stage of the local church?
What if the local church housed the authors of the the top ten fiction and non-fiction books in any given year?
