Welcome to The Rapid Bull, daily edition, where we provide a quick biblical interpretations and applications. This is a ministry of striving for eternity.
When we talk about how to find a good church, boy, does that open up a can of worms. You know, we recently did one of the weekly podcasts about a new film coming out, Spirit and Truth, which is gonna deal with worship.
And this is where you see a lot of differences when it comes to church. The question of worship. Now, I'm not talking about the music, what styles of music, whether it's more contemporary versus more of the traditional hymns.
Not talking that. We're talking about worship. What is the central focus of the church? Are they worshiping self or Christ? Now, I understand every church is gonna say they are worshiping Christ. But in reality, when you start listening to some of the songs they sing, many of the churches say they're worshiping Christ, but all their songs are about me.
Much of the preaching that you hear from the pulpit is not about Christ, but me. What I'm going through. It's all applicational. And when you see a church that has all the focus on man and not Christ, you got to wonder what they're really worshiping.
And that's gonna be the biggest indicator to finding a good church, is to evaluate what is it that they worship? Christ or self. You have churches that are trying to be marketed to people to make them feel good, to make them come and have a euphoric feeling of being excited.
Whether it be through music or the preaching or some do dramas, but that doesn't lift up Christ. That lifts up self. You want to find a church where Christ is exalted.
