Talk about spin!

"Finally, Hanson said some tension in the church is a sign of vitality. “I worry about a church that is concerned about conflict,” he said. He challenged the delegates to think about how they read the Bible, reminding them that wherever Jesus walked he caused tension and questioned people in authority.
“We need to engage tension and remain healthy,” he said. “We must speak openly and respectfully with each other.”

Actually, we challenge Hanson on how he reads the Bible! But tell us again how tension is healthy? (guess he doesn't have acid reflux like I do!)
