I learned about this new website from www.churchcrunch.com.

It looks like it is offering free video sermons from some of the best preachers in North America to any church anywhere.

Cool!  . . . and at the same time . . .

“Wait. What does this mean for the future of preaching?”

Any one can already listen to the most popular preachers on the radio, TV, the Internet etc.  But, now churches will be able to fill their pulpits with these sermons.   Many churches are already doing similar things when they open satellite campuses where all the different locations are watching and listening to the same preacher via video or satellite.  So, this is really not all THAT new.

Yet, it DOES accentuate a problem in the local church setting.  Chances are that you church does not have one of the best preachers in America.  Most preachers are not amazing preachers.  Some are bad, some are good.  But few can compare to the popular ones.

Since we can hear the best sermons online or on radio, we probably are not going to church on Sunday to hear a good sermon, are we?  Are you?  We can stay home and hear amazing sermons, can’t we?

MY QUESTIONS . . .

Let me ask:

1) Why DO you go to church (if you do)?

2) And, would you mind (or prefer) if your church used video sermons from some of the best preachers in the country?
