Here are some facts that we know:

1. There are good and godly people leaving the Madison Church of Christ in disgust.

2. The elders are not telling us what's going on.

3. We have a right to know what's going on, as well as anyone else that cares about our church.

We know that we can worship God at many fine churches in the Nashville area. However, before we make a decision to move to another church, we have a right to know what's going on `behind the scenes' at Madison. You have a right to know.

We need to find out who is in the minority. If people who are concerned about the changes taking place at Madison are in the minority, we may have to move our families to churches that strengthen our beliefs and follow a different worship format than we see emerging at Madison Church of Christ at this time. It's not our desire to be an element of divisiveness. It is our desire to get to the truth and show how widespread (or not) this movement is at Madison Church of Christ. Wouldn't you like to know? We have a right to know, you have a right to know, every church in Nashville has a right to know how this could happen to their church. Can 350 people overthrow 3,500? This poll will answer that question! Wouldn't you like to know the answer? Oddly enough, you have part of the answer and we can all know the whole answer by participating in this poll.

We understand that the elders are now in "secret meetings" to make a decision on how the Madison Church is going to be run. Here's the problem.

We don't think God's work needs to be carried out in secret.

No one consulted the church membership before the current changes were made in the Madison Church of Christ worship format. The results have been devastating. Now the Elders have announced they are meeting in secret again to decide something that's never been asked of its members. The Creators of change are obviously in charge and their work is best carried out in secret. Here is your chance to tell the Elders what they never asked you.
