Nothing like "church shopping."
A sad commentary...

Sad?

I'd say the sad part is that they chose the mega-church, and worse, there are likely no Unitarian churches in Arlen, TX.

Church shopping is something people should do. Unfortunately, there is no perfect place. I occasionally go to the unitarian church for the open perspective. After 3 years, I feel out of place in churches that are homogenous, and everyone strives to think identically.

My mom goes to a mega-church with the praise band, etc. Who ever thought praise bands were a good idea has trashed the music programs of thousands of churches.

I agree with you Jared. It was sad in that it is a somewhat accurate portrayal of the church. The reason the Hill family left their church had something to do with pews...sad too.

It's too bad that so many people feel they must leave their church when something uncomfortable happens or there is conflict. Conflict comes with family.

We need to be less consumeristic in our approach to church and more familial and communal.

I enjoyed the "episode" too. It made a good point.

I got a kick out of the "Day By Day" church where they decided not to even go in. Good stuff.
