Exactly. If that's not exciting, you're probably not doing that.

I'm a little confused.

The post seems to mock a psychotherapistic (and unregenerate) view of church, but those posting afterward seem to agree that church is boring. Why do Christians get caught up in the worldly idea that church should be entertainment? Aren't we there to worship a holy and majestic God through singing and the preaching of His word? Oh, how my heart delights in how alive and sufficient the Word is, and what a joy it is to gather with the brethren.

"Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect." Romans 12:2

My goodness!!! People, please pull up my church www.springarborfm.org and also great music at [broken link]. My heart is racing with the reality of God and I'm not a sensationalist. Theme has been Real Hope. At least listen to 11.01 and 11.08th. Love your humor John. Keep it up Broatha.

would LOVE it if they would play Led Zep in church…..why does Christian music all have to sound the same?? There was a time when churches were the place people would look to for innovations in art and inspiration in music…now, not so much. God must be so BORED with us

My pastor back in the states has a saying: If it's boring…it's probably not God. And yes I think everyone should go to The Rock of Roseville, whether they live in Northern California or not.
