I heard one 40 min sermon on the Parable of the Good Samaritan and the main thing I took away from it was the call to Be Nice. I sort of hoped he'd tell the Parable of the Good Palestinian.
We went to the David Tower Musuem where I took this bit of footage from.
King of Kings Church is a full on, happy clappy, set in conference centre at the base of a shopping mall. Its slick and loud. We sang a chorus tune to "O for a thousand tongues" and there must be 300 here. Alas the projector didn't seem to have all the words.
The sermon (45mins) started off by saying how God wants us to prepare for the coming of the King (amen to that) and how the average religious family in Jerusalem has eight kids (I think I can see where this sermon is going). But then he goes off on a tangent saying how revival is around the corner (amen to that) and how we're going to see Ezekiel's Dry Bones (the Jews) brought together from all over the world and built into a State and then the Spirit will breathe through them, the people of God. Who said quality allegorising died out with St Augustine? His "In Conclusion" was come join the Prayer Rota!
Alas the projector didn't seem to have all the words.
ReplyDeleteGlad to see others have AV problems!
The Arabic speaking congregation (see a sunday or two back) had to reboot their laptop at least twice. It didn't matter because the Lead singer was so loud he made up for us all.
