Brian McLaren on the "Worship Industry"

The video below is really good - Brian McLaren talks about worship, art, propaganda and more. Even if you think McLaren is a bad, bad man (I don't), his words on worship should at least make you think. I especially like what he has to say about worship leaders, since I am one. And I agree that there is a pressure there to please people at church with what I do every week. There's a line somewhere between experiencing God and making sure people are there with you doing the same. Anyway, check out the video. If you can't see the video, go here to see it.

Brian McLaren is far from being a "bad" man :) Good video ! I think we do put alot of pressure on the worship leader when we need to look at our own hearts. The holy spirit is always there.
Sometimes I think people aren't able to worship 'cause they have too much baggage in there that they are afraid to let go of. I also think too many people have preconceived ideas of what worship "should be"
