I just recently visited a church in Destin for a "ladies only" retreat for a night of worship/praise and to hear a great speaker. As we were walking in they were playing secular music ..almost like I felt like i was at a "club" than church ...Is this Normal I ask myself?..I really didn't get a sense of feeling God's presence but then the band on stage started playing Christian music and I was yearning for the presence of God to fill me. I was able to worship and I enjoyed the speaker.. but as we were leaving they had a fire pit outside to stand around and chat and Music was Blaring loudly for any bystander that was driving by could clearly hear the sound of Lady Gaga's music..ARE YOU KIDDING ME?? Seriously you would actually play that type of Secular music that's not by any way shape or form Christian right outside God's house and you could hear it in inside the church? What does God think? Would he really be okay for that type of trashy music to be played at his supposedly "holy" house..I feel like his temple was being "desecrated"..I have NEVER in my life heard any type of secular music being played EVER at church..Is that what it takes to draw in the unchurched..Do they really think that's how to win people to his kingdom?? I have been praying about this and I really feel that that isn't right and my heart is very restless. I feel we as Christians need to stand up before our Churches start going all showy and forgetting about the morals that we need to be obtaining and standing up for..I will be contacting them and asking the meaning behind this ..
signed,
greatly disturbed
