Ga. Pastor: Churches Full of Fat Sheep, Super-Sized on Religion

There are a lot of fat, super-sized sheep inside the church, says one Georgia megachurch pastor. They may call themselves followers of Christ, but few are willing to go out and share the Gospel.

"I don't care how many Bible studies you've been through; if it's not causing you to love God, ... serve more, share your faith, all you're becoming is nothing more than a big, fat sheep that is super-sized on knowledge and full of religion," said Pastor Brian Bloye of West Ridge Church.

His straightforward message was conveyed to thousands at his Dallas, Ga., megachurch on Sunday. For the past four weeks, Bloye has been addressing what he considers is an epidemic in the American church – that is, a "Super Size Me" culture.

The fast food mentality, he says, has crept into the church with many Christians approaching church with a "have it my way" attitude.

Such a mentality has resulted in churchgoers who hop from church to church, make no long-term commitments, and have no accountability. They've essentially become puffed up sheep, Bloye lamented.

"It’s countercultural to what Scripture teaches us about how we are to live as followers of Jesus and how we are to relate to the church," the pastor said. To read more, click here.
