  Looks remarkably like my old youth group. Chris, Dave, Nozza etc actually preparing the “church ladies’ Lunch” – before the kitchen upgrade.

  I wish the success was behind the scenes. Quietly, humbly serving the Lord has been replaced by a dog and pony show.

  Amen to pastor’s wife’s comment. And the penchant for said show – and the applause of men – is part and parcel of the mega-church war on the family. Strip the kids from mom & dad as soon as the “family” arrives. Make sure kids are seen and heard from a distance, so the “adults” are not distracted from the show. When “worship” is finished, the goat-pen church presents the kids back to mom & dad, all pretending they are honoring the Lord.

  It’s all a bunch of rubbish.

  But the show MUST go on!

  This can’t be the youth group!!! Where’s the pizza, where are the guitars and drums?

  Perhaps if we actually HAD youth (working) they might not stray from the faith. Be GONE – pizza, guitars and drums. Bring back REAL purpose, serving others.

  According to the latest Willow Creek reveal study, these guys haven’t been doing a very good job.

  Those youth are children of those who oppose the church entertainment facility. I left the circus church because of mimes and the guitar and drum section in the “youth” services in the basement that disrupted what was supposed to be a “sermon”. After we left that church, we found out it was searching for their 40 days of purpose….

  The dividing of families during church is wrong. They offer programs for the young, separate them, entertain them, and the younger children get snacks and colors. Where is unity?

  I once took over for a youth pastor who had left the former church I attended. The youth knew every contemporary song at the time and the artists, but had no clue where the books of the bible were (I had them search for a scripture reference in Hezekiah, Chapter 3…let them search for 10 minutes before I told them there is no Book of Hezekiah), outside of the four gospels, and could not relate anything about the sovereignty of God except they knew He loved them and wanted them to have stuff!
  Sad and pathetic.
