My problem with the Christian movies is fairly simple; I loathe that every church in America that has a youth group has made its "drama team" or whatever they are called now its number one focal point, and constantly raising money, by fundraising or being at every intersection every weekend day when its sunny to go on trips or to fund their plays, while completely shelving community service for good, or doing anything for the elders in the communities. Nothing. When an elder gets sick, nobody in the church calls or comes to see them. Why? Because they cant contribute to whats most important and the church has no need for them anymore. When was the last time you seen church members shovel snow out of the driveways for people not able to do it themselves? Or go to the store for them when they arent able? When was the last time you seen them visit sick members in hospitals? I quit going to church a few years ago because every single church I went to was nothing more than a corporation, filled with hipocrites, gossip, and exactly what I mentioned above. I tried three churches, and in the end, they were all the same. Every year I buy Christmas presents for three or four underpriviledged kids, buy Thanksgiving dinners for families fallen on hard times and elders not able to buy them. I have several friends that do that with me. I am finally forming the care package drive for our soldiers that Ive fought to get our city park, so it can be huge. When I brought all of these up to the churches? No, No, and No. "Didnt have the time to invest, but if any of the members wanted to get with me, then they were more than welcome to do so"...guess how many members joined me? Not a single one. My mamaw was a member at the church she went to for 55 years, from the day it opened its doors (my papaw helped build it), and when she had her stroke and was unable to go again, how many visits did she get from all of the members combined the last 9 months of her life? One. Thanks pastor. So now every church wants to make movies and plays. And in doing so, well, youve read my post. Now, Im not going to say that ALL churches are like this, but most of them are.
