“And the crowds were questioning him, saying, ‘Then what shall we do?’ ” (Luke 3:10)
When John the Baptist preached, the people weren’t satisfied to merely listen and enjoy the sermon – they wanted to know what they could DO about the sermon. Today, churches have turned worship into a spectator sport. The preacher puts on a good show, and then we all file out after the spectacle.
That’s never what it was meant to be. God didn’t pattern His church for worship-tainment. Sermons should be fuel for living and jabs in the side which prod us to action. If the sermon stays in the building, it was a waste.
Want to shock your preacher? Next Sunday, after the sermon, ask him, “Then what shall we do?”
