And they annoy the dog out of me. I am just so far past wanting to hear someone with that preach-y style. The pep-rally atmosphere... Preachers running back and forth across the platform, sweating and screaming with veins bulging in their foreheads.
Is dignity considered anti-Pentecostal? Is there any proof that services were like this in the early church anything but occasionally?
I have literally come from service with my ears ringing in a way that tells me I am getting hearing damage.
But the most annoying thing for me is that with all the sacrifice of sitting through this at the end there is usually very little teaching from the word of God. Even our Sunday morning services, which are supposed to be our Sunday school (while the kids are all in classes) is just more of this. Wednesday night prayer meeting is more of it too... Is this the norm? Cause if it is I may need a different religion soon.
