From my perspective as a short-term PBC student, CBC seemed to be following a pretty simple formula. Not that of biblical church building and evangelism, but rather the economic law of capitalism. Though there are certainly believers in the church and people that genuinely love the Lord, the church itself has become a financial investment. Now instead of infusing the community around it with life by sending out others to plant and to serve, the bloated monolith sends out vans to pick up sinners and shuttle them to the safety of the hill, encouraging them to tithe so the church can continue it’s programs. Promising extra blessing if they give more to fund their dramas designed to scare people into repentance.

I met some awesome people at PBC, including my wife and best friends. But in the 6 months that I attended City Bible and heard Pastor Frank speak in PBC chapel, I heard him talk way more about church administration than about Jesus. This is what happens to mega churches. They become money vacuums, and sustaining the church and it’s facilities and staff can take over for the spreading of the gospel.
At least, this was my take on it.

On a bitterness scale of 1 to burning in hell, I give it a 2.

Well done sir, your heart appears to be free from the anguish that torments so many of us.
