I played bass in the worship band for a local revival. I sat right up front the first night, but the pastor screamed so loud, almost the whole time, that the second night I sat in the back. It literally hurt my ears.

And he seemed to be looking to entertain more than preach any sound doctrine or life changing message. I was looking for meat. ANY meat in the sermon. There was none.

But what was annoying was a chorus of five or six guys that would follow every sentence with “preach it, brother”, “That’s right”, “amen”, etc. And this was even when he said something was very BAD. It’s like saying “I just found out that my wife has Cancer”, and they respond, “Amen. That’s right!”

It was lunacy - in a church.

Don't tell me that nonsense is making it's way into mainstream churches?
