“what’s an actual mega church”

I can help with that. The biggest mega-churchy is headquartered in Rome. Has a billion or so members. Makes this place look like a storefront.

Just rich white trash behaving themselves.

I have seen the show last year.

It is amazing and an incredible testament to the glorious birth of Jesus Christ.

The fact that Tik Tok is running an algorithm to bash it tells us that it is indeed wonderful. It is exactly what Jesus predicted in Matthew 5 of the sermon on the mount.

I belonged to a church back home, of about 700 members, with an extraordinarily talented staff and congregation, and the Christmas program was fabulous, though no animals or flying angels were in it. But admission was free, as the church considered it a part of ministry. It was a rather wealthy congregation, (well, not all of us were wealthy) and had members who obediently tithed.

I was musing recently to family ... where is the animal poop and pee (clinically speaking that would be feces and urine from, ya know, sheep and pigs and cows)?
Authentic never smelled so good as these modern day offerings.
What were they thinking? They left out the STINKING!!

A Texas megachurch has been slammed for its extravagant Christmas service, which featured nearly 1,000 performers, several camels and flying angels.

Great show! (And surprisingly sincere.)

(Other social media videos showed a performance to Michael Jackson’s Thriller.

‘Nothing says Christmas like creepy dolls dancing to MJ’s Thriller,’ wrote the poster.)

That’s bizarre 😮

“Democrats outraged at megachurch ticketed show.”

“Democrats celebrate Hamas liberation or occupied Palestine...”

I believe that’s the church that does a massive Christmas production every year. The church members all volunteer to put it on.

We should be extravagant in our worship......as long as that is the purpose. If the purpose is to put on a show and get butts in the seats, it’s misguided.

I’ve been involved in some fairly intense Christmas programs over the years, but never with live animals. Besides, the wise guys were not at the birth of Jesus - they came later.
