What is it about mega-churches?

They all seem to have more interest in building the church than in building the Body of Christ.

Lax financial oversight riles some church followers

"At First Family Church, money mysteries leave some of the faithful wondering: Is the church serving God’s glory or the pastor’s?"


Despite the warm fuzzies generated by lots of like-thinking religious people, I'm beginning to think that the minute a church aims for mega-church status one should run as fast as one can from it.
