Dump the 'cool,' grab your cross It's no secret that churches are using gimmicks to attract the masses. Much like all of the rock bands I worked with, the cooler and hipper you are, the more you can attract a crowd. This is prevalent in so many churches, and it usually starts in the youth groups. They're raised to be cool, listen to cool music and dress cool. I actually had a youth pastor say to me, “We want to show the unsaved that we can be as cool and have as much fun as the world, " to which I replied, "I spent most of my youth and life learning how to be cool, but when I came to Jesus I realized that when he said crucify the flesh and don't be like the world he meant it".
