Scripture just isn't enough, today's church just has to have a gimmick.

Oh great, now I've got that song stuck in my head.

I would agree though. Too much trendiness. Too many fads. But I wouldn't necessarily say all of these things are bad IF, and the IF is important, they are used along side regular study of the scriptures rather than used to replace the scriptures.

I met with one of our pastors last week and was talking to her (yes her, let's leave that for another thread) about being part of a small group. I told her I was more interested in actual Bible study than in studying the newest book.

Your small group isn't a "G12" group is it?

IF can be a mighty big word.

Churches try and copy the latest business fad too. Usually badly.
