How do you typically "church-shop?" Are you mostly interested in finding a church that accommodates your needs and gives you a comfortable experience? Or are you looking for a church that equips you to serve and deploys your gifts?

Special thanks to Watermark Community Church for letting us recreate their concept.

  • Only someone who does not know the church world would critique this video as even remotely close to "injecting strands of militancy." It spends far more energy critiquing the "cruise ship" mentality, which is rife in American churches. The "battleship" metaphor indeed addresses mission, dedication, and submission to higher command. It may be somewhat clumsy but all illustrations have their limits. Christians are in a spiritual battle--that is biblical. But our weapons are faith, hope, and love.

  • neither a cruise ship or a battle ship, but a church should be a fishing boat.

  • Hahaha, nice metaphors! :)

  • @Cabaltuber a fishing battleship--there are genuine wicked submarines in the waters we we fish... ;)

  • @Parthianking but ministry is still a battle. i bear in my heart the scars to prove it. faith gets crushed, hope wanes, and love is almost always misunderstood. unless you're a battleship built and tested by the Holy Spirit Himself, you'll never be fit for ministry.

  • @Cabaltuber word up my brotha.!!! do you have a blog or somthn.?

  • Our pastor talked on this subject this morning.

  • Does God build and send this church to mission? Is God on our side?

  • honored for their efforts?? not sure I'd join a church just so my ministry is recognised...
