Ha! I'm really glad you decided to tackle the topic. I agree, that every style of worship can have it's distractions. I wonder though when it is ok to appeal so much to the flesh or culture in order to bring people to Christ. I've been a part of lots of worship events that are hyped up for the purpose of appealing to people to get them to church. Maybe that's ok though. I don't know. Perhaps there are places in the Bible where people use the world and culture to appeal to people to get them to see some aspect of God and his truth. I've just seen in my own life experience that, especially with teens, you draw them to the music and that's as far as it ever goes. The music IS the worship and the youth are not really ever shown that worship runs much deeper. By the way, I found out from your wife that you went to Ski and Share in Idaho. I used to go to that for years. It holds some of my greatest youth group memories. Well, I hope to hear more from ya! Thanks for writing. -Kristy Thankyou for your post. Ha!
