Noted American evangelist Tony Campolo tells of visiting an all night diner in Hawaii while suffering from jet lag and being unable to sleep. From his booth, he overheard a conversation among several "ladies of the night." On said that the next night would be her 39th birthday, and, sadly, she confessed that she had never in her life had a birthday party. Tony secretly arranged with the manager of the diner to throw a surprise party for the women. The next night, the woman and her friends were stunned and thrilled, and Tony led the group in prayer.
Later, the diner manager asked Tony, "What kind of church do you belong to?" He replied,"I belong to the kind of church that throws birthday parties for whores at three thirty in the morning." This was Jesus' kind of church.

What kind of church (wisdom tradition) do you belong to?

(as a Catholic I voted "my wisdom tradition just ain't as cool")
