What are ya supposed to do when the sermon sucks?
Posted By Paul on January 27, 2005
Dang, that’s a heck of a title, eh? But we’ve all been there before, haven’t we? The dude is the pulpit is just flat out boring, monotone voice, all around you it looks like a bobblehead convention as heads drop and then quickly snap back upright.
What if that is your regular pastor? What are you supposed to do? In today’s McWorld, all too often the answer is, ‘move on to something else.’
Well, Tod Bolsinger (It Takes A Church), has an excellent post about this. The title alone should get you to go read it. (Hey, you read this post, didn’t ya?) Blessed Art Thou When the Sermon Sucketh
Oh, and as for the answer to the title question, go read Tod’s post! But I’ll tell this, it’s NOT the McWorld answer.
Whew….THANKFULLY, this is a problem that YOU, Paul, just do NOT have to deal with…
Nope, when I have my camera with me taking pics for the web site it keeps me fully alert!

OK, just what should the response of the congregation be when their Pastor is unable to deliver a coherent sermon? What if the Child Care Director can’t direct? What if the Worship Leader can’t lead? Doesn’t God gift his people for his purposes?
