Escaping the Consumer Church
The folks over at Stupid People Church, the blog/podcast that I’m falling in love with and highly recommend, pointed me to this article, entitled “Escape From Consumer Church,” a GREAT article that says a lot of things that I find myself agreeing with with where the church is today and where the church is going and where the church needs to go. Worth a read, for sure.

Thank you for the article. I have followed the magechurch story through reading and personal experience for years. I agree that Christ called us to represent Him by building community in ways the rest of the world cannot. We don’t dwell enough on the concept of sharing in order ot gain mothers, fathers, and property. Debt is also an ugly side of the megachurch phenomenon that he didn’t address; it forces us to look inward rather than serving.
