Jared Wilson of The Thinklings blog, has a great rant up at his blog, The Gospel-Driven Church. He is  fed up with the gospel (good news) being hi-jacked by conumserism us/them marketing. These videos set him off, and his post shows the heart of one who cares about mature, growing Christians knowing how wide, how deep, how long, how high the love of God in Christ Jesus really is. His heart is breaking, he’s angry and there are times that makes for outstanding writing. This is one of them.

I just hate this stuff. I hate it. It reduces the glory of the Gospel to a marketing campaign based on who’s cooler than whom. That works well when you’re selling computers (or soft drinks or what-have-you). But it is flat-out anti-Christian when you’re ridiculing other members of the Body to sell your spiritual product.

This is reverse pharisaism. It really is. “I thank you God that I’m not like that lame, religious retard over there.”
This is just symptomatic of the consumerist, self-centered, behavioristic, culture-driven lunacy passing for ministry today. It is an anti-gospel, and it is the spirit of the anti-christ at work.
