I mentioned in my last post that I needed to post on this.  What do you think about Christians drinking alcohol.  Now I don’t mean getting drunk, but just having a beer or two or a glass of wine on occasion.  I’ve been in circumstances on opposite sides of the spectrum.  I went to school where you had to sign a covenant you wouldn’t drink (even though I was 21 and married), and serving in churches where it was expected the pastor wouldn’t (but seemed to be ok that it was in deacon’s refrigerator).  Then I’ve been involved in ministry where wine was served during a Christmas party.

I want to hear from you, and then I’ll share my thoughts in a follow-up post.  Looking forward to a robust debate as I’m sure I’ve got readers in both camps or somewhere in between.

Update: Welcome Head Noises readers!
