What goes on in there? Does it not seem like a scam to you?

Nope, I’m not afraid of God so I go to a real church.

It's a grift.

All that I've encountered are zionist/dispensationalist/prosperity doctrine.
It is very sad how corrupted things have become, intentionally so.

A megachurch is a Protestant Christian congregation that averages 2,000 or more attendees in weekly worship services.

It is like a Ted talk. Head microphones, drum sets, and a bunch of easily led people. Slimy people run these shams.

When we lived in Baton Rouge, there was a time that we went to Healing Place. It's definitely experience driven. A huge place and nobody really knows anyone outside of their friends that tag along. The message is usually lukewarm and they won't outright talk about how we should run from sin as to not be too controversial. I know my family didn't have any meaningful spiritual growth while we were there. You need a smaller church to have spiritual accountability and that's something you just can't get at a mega church.

Is the Bayou Church in Lafayette considered a mega church?

Too bad government taxes have ruined much of the good nature and Christian giving churches provided.
Now , all those in real need reach out to the secular government , making church giving now seem like a scam.

My brother in law went to one and was real good buddies with the pastor. Went on a fishing trip with them probably 15 years go. Guys name was Perry Noble and I thought about tossing the queer off the boat a few times. An absolute dick head

I just want to give you a shout out for asking if anyone here goes rather than just blanket asking “anyone go to a mega church” like most of the buffoons here do.

I haven't been divorced, been addicted to drugs, been broke, had a child die, or any other life altering event. So no, I haven't had the need to be saved by a mega church.

I'm Catholic. I wanted to check out Healing Place-because I'd heard nothing but bad things-and have a lifetime of being predisposed to not liking such places. Prosperity Theology being a natural repellant to me.

I have to say-in all candor-I felt The Spirit. I worshipped. It was good for my soul.

I didn't go back though. I went to mass instead.

I went to Bethany World Prayer Center once while I was in high school.

The dancing and speaking in tongues stuff was weird.

Hardly any denomination is Protestant any more. Non denom are certainly not protestant.

No one who currently attends a mega church is going to admit that they attend a mega church

Yes. I attend the biggest mega church in the world. It’s called God’s Church of the Wheel. Happens every time I go out for a bike ride. He approves.
