They need the spectacles of Scripture to see through all the false advertising and subliminal control.

Like I've said before: We decry the popular culture, and then throw open our doors and invite it inside. We model ourselves based on pop-psycology, and self help-prograns, and then use mass marketing techniques. When the pagan does enter a church, s/he doesn't see anything that is the least bit different that what is happening on the Oprah show.
What they need to hear is of sin, judgment, and redemption. Instead the get health, wealth and prosperity. The get "purpose" without Christ is coming back and he will be mad. But what do I know? According to the Evangelicals around here I'm just a mean Calvinist who is way to judgmental.
