So what would happen if Starbucks was marketed like how the church markets itself? Would you ever come back?
Has this ever been your experience with a church? HT to Brian Ayers and BeyondRelevance.com for the video.

This was AWESOME in it’s humor, and yet sad with so many of it’s truthful parodies.

Hilarious yet scarily (is that a word?) accurate and shows why the church should never market itself. If we do, we become consumer driven and corporate (as in the business sense) minded.
And to answer your question I would never return to a Starbucks like that; coming from me that is saying allot!

I’m not sure if @portorikan is more excited about the video or the idea of someone never going back to Starbucks. Why doest thou hate coffee so much?

Wow. I don’t know exactly what to say to that. Well, for one, churches shouldn’t be like Starbucks anyway, but besides that… I really wonder if church seems that weird to new people. Kinda makes you think.
