personal involvement
Institutional churches

❝❝I think it has a lot to do with how connected someone feels to their church/temple/circle/whatever. I think that big institutional churches appear more interested in putting butts in pews than any genuine mission. The church members just give a little time every week and put some cash in the offering. Easy peasy. I really don't understand how those “megachurches” work. To me, if a normally-sighted person can't see the pulpit clearly from the back row without a huge television screen, then it's not really a church. It's an entertainment palace.
What can I say? My own practice demands personal involvement. Even without that, I've got a bunch of preacher ancestors who would disapprove.❞❞
