About this episode

The episode discusses the consumer mindset that people bring into church and emphasizes the importance of viewing the church as a family rather than a service provider.

There's a habit we all carry into church that most of us don't even notice. More often than not, it’s subconscious. The world we live in causes us to rate everything. We review restaurants, movies, hotels, apps, products, airlines, uber drivers. We're trained consumers, constantly reviewing and grading our experiences. And when something stops delivering what we want, we cancel the subscription and simply move on. __________ Get more out of today's teaching by visiting our Church Online page for things like our community guide, a weekly devotional, and the teaching slides.
