Entertainment vs. Worship

Jan 23, 2009 14:46

Do more people truly feel moved by multimedia worship, or are they merely blinded by the flash and pop?

I think that to truly begin to answer this question, we need to look beyond the method toward the content. What's being offered besides video montages and electric guitars? What's being offered if 'more appealing' means are being utilized? Are worship leaders content to remain with these items, or does something more get communicated either during or after the service? I think that's how we begin to test whether something is worship or entertainment.

The other piece is much more individual: does one come to church to worship or see what cool video the tech team has put together?

I'd love to hear what you think...

entertainment, worship, church
