St. Louis Missouri area church says: You Are A Princess And This is Your Moment

You Are A Princess And This is Your Moment???


Here's a summary video of Princess Nicole Crank's women's conference for the women of Faith Church of St. Louis

Think of it like a spiritual pedicure with a heavy dose of narcissistic eisegesis.

Grab your tiara and your sword and come learn about how great you are!


After all, Jesus' death on the cross shows that 'you're worth it!'

Wow, they have turned what should be a gathering to worship the One True God to worshipping "me".

They had a women's conference at Elevate Life church here recently. There was much dancing, pretty erotic moves too, and lot's of of uplifting, inspirational talk, but no, and I mean NO biblical message. They would take small snippets of scripture, out of context, and apply it to moments in their own lives, again, lifting themselves up as they preach, rarely mentioning the One that makes everything possible.

It's a shame that so much about many churches is just like the message above.

We are nothing but dust on the ground without God, He deserves ALL the glory.

This is a problem with a lot of churches today...it's all about "empowerment" and has nothing to do with the gospel of Jesus Christ.
The church has completely lost it's focus in an attempt to make everyone comfortable.

u are so right.


many churches have become seeker driven

and being hip and relevant have become idols the church worships more than JESUS

GOD TOLD WORD FAITH PASTRIX NICOLE CRANK GENESIS 22:1-14 WAS ABOUT ABRAHAM MAKING AN IDOL OUT OF HIS SON ISAAC


By Ken Silva pastor-teacher on Jul 7, 2012 in Current Issues, Features, Word Faith


…having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power.


Avoid such people. For among them are those who creep into households and capture weak women, burdened with sins


and led astray by various passions, always learning and never able to arrive at a knowledge of the truth…they will exploit you with false words.


(2 Timothy 3:5-7; 2 Peter 2:3)

Do these people have no fear of God at all?????

the seeker movement dont seem to. it is pride and itching ears that is all they want in their Hearts.

[kristinebrown]

Wow! Definitely a circus with lots of clowns. I hate to be judge mental. The circus show is a bit over the top. But, not being there to hear everything that was said it's hard to say. It sounded like they were talking about God and bringing God into their message. Is this for seekers? I have no idea, maybe I shouldn't add my thoughts to this thread? Seems a tad hollow and shallow. Hopefully they brought the good news into their message somewhere?? I don't know why the big show with all the glitz. More like a wild party.

This "Church" is about 6 miles from my house. It is DEMONIC. They have two locations now and they are flat out huge, and growing rapidly. Years ago I attended one of the "sermons" at the request of a friend. There was no mention of Jesus, no alter call at the end and nothing you would remotely connect with Christ and/or Christianity. What they did have was a "preacher" telling people how they should invest their money. He didn't preach the rapture, or even that there would be a tribulation making their gold and silver worthless.... No, he told them to invest every penny they had in Gold. Since gold shot up in price not long after the fact, his audience revers him as a "god". The people that attend this church would defend it to the death. It is a cult. You will never hear Hell preached at this church or even the need to repent. It is all about how to make your life here "perfect". I feel bad for saying this, but I really wanted to punch the preacher that day. It sickened me. It makes me literally want to vomit to see someone stand up in front of a massive congregation and tell them ONLY what they want to hear. Are you a sinner? Who cares!!! Aren't we all?! ---- That isn't too far off from the sermon. They are the fastest growing "church" in the area and most of that growth is coming from young people.

Entertainment: Should there be a line?




I usually don’t mind some thought-provoking fun or a drama or even some special performances during church services, as long as it points me to Christ.


But as is the trend these days, there are often some very entertaining performances to be had in the Seeker-Driven model

that is void of anything whatsoever to do with God, the Bible or, you know, the purpose for taking our families to a Sunday morning service.



Over at A Little Leaven’s Museum of Idolatry, there is an interesting video from a church in St. Louis that combines Michael Jackson’s Thriller, Ghost Busters and positive thinking.



Now I did see some Scripture verses being used to make the banshees run screaming off the stage,

but I’m wondering what kind of message overall we are sending to those in the audience (i.e. the newer Christians or the unsaved),

who perhaps might take this in a way other than what the creative team intended?


And the use of the demonic walking dead, well, that’s another whole hot mess.



But at least it’s entertaining. Here’s the video:
