My main complaint concerning Sunday worship services in most churches is that little or no attention is given to the social issues of the day. Study of the Bible and the Christian life is needed, but some sermons should relate to controversial social issues, such as pertaining to homosexuality, organ transplants, stem cell research, illegal immigrants and the use of nuclear power. I am a methodist. The General Conference of the church has adopted guidelines concerning most of the great issues of our time. These are printed in a pamphlet entitled "Social Principles of he United Methodist Church 2009-2012:" In this pamphlet it is stated:
"It is recommended that this statement of Social Principles . . . . be emphasized regularly in every congregation."
