I went to church the other day. I don't know what it is, but something about organized religion disgusts me - completely ignoring that the head pastor of my former church had an affair then beat her for telling. Don't kiss and tell, right?
Not right.
As I said before, I went to church the other day. A big one. 5000 members strong and more than 6 services throughout the week. What could go wrong?
Everything.
Let me describe the casual christian for you. This is the type of person who comes to church looking nice, laces tied, smiles on. This person has gone to church all their life. This person, she or he, buys the one hour Jesus sales pitch, sings the praise songs with eyes closed and lyrics memorized. This person has said the prayer and recommitted their life to Jesus, at least three times. Then communion medication time. He or she takes a pill of communion bread and swallows it whole with some communion grape juice - once a week should keep the devil meek. Or not.
The current state of mainstream Christianity is worse than we can fathom. When all is said and done, this person walks out, not fully grasping the meaning of the lyrics, or the fine print of the sales form. The pastor's message is already becoming a blur. The fondest memory is the joke the pastor cracked mid-sermon. This person is oblivious, but content. This person is me.
