“I am convinced that we have trained Christians to be demanding consumers, not disciples.  If you doubt this, as an experiment, try scaling down the services at your church for three months to just prayer and Scripture reading and watch what happens.  If this is too frightening, just imagine doing it.  What do you think would happen?  Once we have created the monster, it never stops demanding to be fed.  Consumers demand that we deliver the goods or they will take their business elsewhere.  Though this is the creative force behind capitalism, it has little to do with following Christ (85).”
