They go on generation after generation with loyal families who support their church and pastors who are there because they love God, not the dollars and the celebrity.
If I ever were to become a Christian, it surely would be at one of those country churches rather than one of the showmanship edifices of the Schuller-Osteen variety.
2 Corinthians 6:1 As God’s co-workers we urge you not to receive God’s grace in vain. 2 For he says, “In the time of my favor I heard you, and in the day of salvation I helped you.” I tell you, now is the time of God’s favor, now is the day of salvation.
Many wholeheartedly agree with you about the “showmanship edifices.” Well said.
