So, I trundled off to church this morning. First time I've gone to church for anything other than a special occasion (easter, wedding, etc) since I can ever remember. I remember running away from Sunday School once when I was four... but I wasn't officially in a service then, it was like day care I think.
In an odd bit of irony they ended up showing a video sermon today, the one day I go to see a sermon in person, they show it on TV. I could've stayed home, lol. I went to see it in person, see what it was like. We'd seen the church earlier in the week when we went there for a food truck and it was quite impressive... video cameras, three giant screens, musical instruments on a beautiful stage, an entire drum kit housed in a plastic sound-proof cage, a wireless sound system. I was drawn like a geek to flame. Today I was drawn to the preaching aspect of it, cribbing hot tips on how the preacher interacted with the audience, taking mental notes on how the lyrics displayed on the big screens still didn't help me sing along since the songs were lacking any real form of call and response. And worship songs lately seem so short on nouns.
Anyways, I'm evaluating you know? We'll see what happens, I need a bit more data.
