Making an Entrance

I have three doors in which to enter my home, namely, the front, the back, and the garage. I have three doors in which to enter my church, one in front and two side ones. Coincidence? Yes. But are three entrances enough for either? From a literal sense, of course. Could it be argued that figuratively my church needs more doorways? Yes. Let me explain. Whenever I have taken a taxi, traveled on a train, or attended a sporting event at a large stadium, I am offered multiple doors to pass through. Why? Because there is a consumer demand for…
