It used to be that people went to church to hear the Word of God and sound exposition of Scripture. People could hear God speak, know His will, and respond to His redemptive work. Today church going people have Christmas at the Movies, a study of various themes from movies like It's a Wonderful Life and Miracle on 34th Street.
No doubt a few Bible verses will be thrown in to justify whatever comments will be made on trivial "spiritual" topics. We all know though that there will be no prophetic voice in it. The only thing these messages will do is boost that fuzzy holiday spirit that makes you want to shop.
To be sure, the Word of God is rare.
