To what extent will churches go to draw in the masses? Tonight I was watching a television show about a company that builds fish aquariums. One of the featured projects was a 57,000 gallon aquarium in a church. This project took over two years to complete and currently is the home of around 600 fish. Over the aquarium is the verse "Follow me and I will make you fishers of men". It would probably make me ill to know the total cost of this project including the salary of the full time marine biologist required to maintain it.
Thousands of children will die today of preventable disease and malnutrition, and how can a church use the money that people have obediently given to have a "Sea World" in the lobby.
Father forgive us of our extravagances, our selfishness, give us a heart for the things that break your heart.
