Unnecessarily Pretentiously Alternative

We’re upside down, inside out – can’t tell our cars from our kids. Which one is more valuable? Our jobs, money, goals, stuff – even the church can’t decide. Commercialism and pop culture are woven deeply into the fabric of our pews. But we’re ok with it, so that’s fine. But just be aware that that is not what Jesus modeled for us. Pop culture is driven my media and ultimately government. Being ‘In’ the world but not ‘Of’ the world, what does that really mean? Does it mean we can look like the world so that we can capture lost souls through a veil of deceit? Boy oh boy – you’d think God was putting up his feet handing out the dough to all his mobsters to do his dirty work. When the church uses pop culture to seduce its non/members it is mirroring the identical behavior of the world. Sure it’s all in the name of God – but seriously, do we need to take our lessons from worldly hierarchy? One single gift I would like to pass onto my children – think for yourself, no matter what the church says! When your thoughts mesh with God – then you will know what is right for you.
So all this said – it is only my thoughts that lead me to believe what I will support and what I won’t support. You are completely entitled to what you think is right.
