Thank you for these thoughts. Our youngest daughter left home this fall, headed off to college. As the daughter of a pastor, she's never had to 'look for' a church; she's always had one. Now, she is going through this somewhat agonizing process. Much to her dismay, she's not finding what she knows she needs. Too much entertainment, too much casual, too much worldliness. She longs for strong, confident, clear worship through music, fellowship, and especially through the preaching of the Word. It grieves my heart, as a father, to watch her grow increasingly frustrated that after two months away from home, she has searched out 5-6 churches without finding one that worships a BIG God. It causes my pastor's heart some measure of anger, both sinfully prideful and, I trust, some measure of righteous indignation, that 'churches out there' just keep missing the point. May the spirit of these posts somehow get out there and to people in these congregations. May God bring us back to Himself.Kevin Sorensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10930643495363470963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1873453867984233607.post-12861909226215188552013-10-07T12:09:19.218-04:002013-10-07T12:09:19.218-04:00Yes, my husband and I have has a similar experence...Yes, my husband and I have has a similar experence recently. It was sad what this "modern" church has done to "worship". We could not feel the Holy Spirit. We just prayed during their "music" that even though we didn't feel that God was in this He would be present in our hearts and help us to worship even though we were not being lead to do so. I don't understand the dark theatre atmosphere. God is not dark He is LIGHT! I don't go to socialize at the coffee bar but to get closer to my Savior! <br /><br />Great post Melissa!Monicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17659675759066363838noreply@blogger.com
