The Alzheimer Metaphor

The older I get, the more I observe, the more I realize churches are adrift, not unlike the Titanic, heading blindly for the iceberg of the digital worldview.

Instead of thinking deeply about the changes necessary for navigating the churning waves of change, churches are busily engaged in treating the symptoms of low commitment–cutting edge sound systems, oversized monitors, studio stages, without dealing with the deeper realities of a changing cultural terrain.

The near future will soon confront church leaders with the challenge of measuring their willingness to unlearn, dismantle, and relearn. A tremendously difficult option for those locked into the prison of their own worldview.
