In today’s American evangelical landscape, the local church has been quietly reshaped by the logic of the marketplace — positive affirmations, healing prayer, and various other entertainment-based practices. Lights, brands, platforms, and personalities have replaced the ordinary means of grace — and many Christians don’t even realize it. In this video, we explore how the church’s mission has been distorted by entertainment, emotionalism, and consumer-driven strategies — and why the Reformers would hardly recognize what passes for worship in many churches today.
