The Endless Pursuit of Bigger Barns
You will find that most false prophets are never happy with the current structure or number of structures under their domain. Even when the congregation is not growing, the pastor will insist the physical building should grow … more sanctuary space, more meeting rooms, a fancier, modernized looked and decor. The drivers for this obligatory growth is both ego and financial gain. The more construction and more money that flows through the system, the greater the opportunity to be enriched by it. There is also a thing called “pastor’s bragging right” in which false prophets get together and compare sizes and numbers and who’s the big dog in town. Is your pastor the big dog in town?
