Quote by Chuck Colson, Loving God
The church has been brought into the same value system as the world: fame, success, materialism and celebrity. We watch the leading churches and the leading Christians for our cues. We want to emulate the best known preachers with the biggest sanctuaries and the grandest edifices. Preoccupation with these values has perverted the church's message.
Summary
This quote highlights the concern that the church has shifted its focus from its core values and teachings to worldly values such as fame, success, materialism, and celebrity. It suggests that instead of being guided by the principles of faith and spirituality, the church has become influenced by the leading churches and well-known preachers who prioritize grandeur and prosperity. As a result, the message of the church has been distorted and compromised, diverting from its true purpose and mission.
