    Any video making fun of church (with a lower case "c") is good to me. The Church is made of people not special songs, good speakers, or bricks.

  • By juxtaposing ...

    By juxtaposing church and Starbucks, it is easy to see just how trivial much "church" has become: how like selling a product the practice of American religion is. This exposes both the silliness and the stupidity of much of it. I am a clergy person, by the way. I'll definitely refer to this for an example of how NOT to greet and "welcome" people.

    This is great! I pray that church leaders will see this and embrace needed change.

    i hate "coffe shops" like this. they might be serving good "java" but how can someone that never "drinks coffee" ever learn to like it?

    not a very funny vid when you think about how many people feel SO akward at church.

    WOW am i thankful for my church!

  • I laughed and ...

    I laughed and cringed. I would make a caveat that the purpose of a church and a Starbucks are very different. Starbucks exists to sell a product. The Church exists to proclaim the gospel in word and deed.

    Still, the critique is spot on. I sent this to my Council and committee chairs.
