Is my church greedy, please answer?

My church is not just any church. It has a stage and lights, cameras, Christian rock (with drumsets and electric guitars), and two huge screens, a Cafe (to get coffee before service or to watch the service from), bookstore, and each service usually consists of 600-700 people.



Here's a video of the service: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nhDkm3r99鈥?/a>

There is someone who talks of course. It's not just music.

Regardless of whether they admit it or not, all churches need money to survive, that's why they have collection plates, donations, tithes, whatever.



It seems to me that the money spent at that church to bring in more money for that church (ie, the bookstores, the cafe) could be better spent on charity work.



So perhaps, but maybe not any more than many other churches.
Then your church is not a church it's not a place of worship it's a mall leave it and find a real church.Is my church greedy, please answer?
All churches are to some degree. Why do you think they pass collection? Does god need money? I seriously doubt it. Yeah I know the money is used for this or that, but it still comes down to some amount of greed. This church wants to be bigger than that one or have a nicer play ground or whatever.
What is your question? You're just complaining about your church.... which you should be faithful to! Why do you even go there if you don't like it? Pick a church that helps you worship the Lord in a great way and stick to it; and it doesn't matter what kind of camera your church has!!Is my church greedy, please answer?
If that is the type of service members of the Congregation enjoy, they have to raise the funds some how. It costs money to have those types of lavish programs.

Personally I think all that money could be better spent.
I cannot answer this just from what you have here. Many churches today are adding some fluff to get the youth interested. It's hard to compete with XBox.
