Not imbalance, just carnality.
But if the emphasis isn't really on denying self and making disciples, then I guess we can just turn the "church" into whatever image we think it should be. Maybe they should just tweak some church songs:
"I'm going back to the heart of [pagan] worship.....
It's all about ME, its all about ME.....
I won't apologize for the [relevant] thing we made it....
Its all about ME...."
