I attended today. The show (not church for sure) started with a montage of a beautiful rainforest and waterfalls. Then transitioned to candy land and Willy Wonka. Following this was a rant about how this church doesnât shy away from talking about storms. The screen changed to an ocean with rain and the showman put on a raincoat and proceeded to yell a lot about how we need to believe in God while throwing out a few paltry Bible verses. Meanwhile in the background, a random cast person would wander by periodically behind him and toss a bucket of water on him. Then this transitioned into the Mr Rogerâs neighborhood song while he changed his shoes and stopped the sermon. Then he eventually wandered back to talking about Acts. The concept had potential, we either drift drown or swim as Christians. But he failed to dig deeply into relatable examples of each. Instead, he kept telling vaguely relevant stories about his own life without really tying it in firmly. Yelled BELIEVE GOD a lot without explaining how to do that in this awful world. He firmly said that church needed to be fun. But it should still be church. There was no clear message, and it was full of empty meaningless gratuitous pranks, stunts, and gimmicks. Completely devoid of the Word of God with any depth beyond that which a 3 year old could comprehend. The only good part of the service was the worship. After that, RUN screaming if you are a âgrow through what you go throughâ deep Christian who wants sound teaching relevant to the hard painful experiences of this world in a biblical lens. If you just want a free show and some entertainment under the guise of being Christian, this is for you. Itâs a âfeel goodâ shallow Elmer Gantry style (google that book)...
