Yes it has to be his way. I was in a church where they had a succession of worship ministers who said the worship service had to be their way and if you were not on board you were selfish for wanting to have the service your way. You had to be open to their changes or else you were the troublemaker. Membership kept going down. The church was in a mixed demographic area and when they adopted a goal of having 33% white/33% black/33% Hispanic We decided to leave and help them achieve their mix goal.
So many of the worship ministers focus on their singing and the ones on the stage that they ignore whether the congregation is singing. If they want more volume they just crank up the microphones. If you look around, most of the members are just moving their lips. Not sure that is what God desires.
We live in a country with 41% of the kids born out of wedlock but never a sermon on fornication. Always grace and forgiveness. But hey, that is a way the consultants say to grow your church. Not sure this is what God desires either.
Sermons on fornication will lead to people leaving and not giving.
Same with pro life sermons.
Pastors/priest know this. Much more fun to talk about global warming and helping people a world away than about upfront problems.
