Has anyone else noticed the similarities between some of today’s ‘sermons’ and high school pep rallies, or am I just nuts?
Remember those pep rallies in which we were told to say/repeat stuff at the command of whoever was leading it?
I jst love stened to yet another sermon/talk delivered at a pupular megachurch in which the folks in the pews/theater,seats are being told now and again ‘everyone say’ or ‘can you say’ something (you fill it in).
Regretably, none of these instances has anything to do with scripture. No one is collectively reading scripture or reciting an inportant creed. They are just being told to repeat or say something the speaker has chosen for them., just like at the high school peprallies I remember.
Sad, really sad.
Food for thought on a Sunday morning.
Dan, yes, I’ve been in services where this was done. Sigh…
