Teh Power Team

Let's start out by saying three things: A) I'm a Christian, B) I've seen the Power Team, and C) I agree with the essay. While what the power team is amazing, it's been done a thousand times before. I enjoyed what I saw, and it was a rather spiritually uplifting evening, but I'm just as happy sitting in a pew on Sunday morning to receive a biblical message. It seemed that the PT's plan of attack was to guilt people into coming foreword. I don't like it when Christians do that. A person has to seriously assess his or her own situation and think deeply about such a commitment. The PT relies on 'heat of the moment' conversions, which will last a couple weeks at best. We've all done things in the heat of the moment that we looked back on and said 'what the hell was I thinking?’  And while becoming a Christian is something I fully endorse, I don't think being guilted into it by a bunch of burly manly men is the way to do it. Your call, though.
