How far is too far?

Last night I went to the winter jam concert. I can honestly say that I will never go to one of those again. The only band I wanted to see was Skillet. They played 5 songs. They played 4 songs off of their newest album Comatose. I'm not really a fan of the album so I was a little disappointed. The other bands I didn't like and when they weren't playing people were trying to convince me that it was God's will that I give money to their cause.

I don't have a problem giving my money away to a good cause. I don't have a lot of money but if someone asks me if I could contribute to a worthy cause, I'll usually be down. When someone tells me that I can spare 5 dollars and it's God's will for me to give it to their organization, I get a little offended.

I've never been to winter jam before last night. I figured it would be a bunch of "contemporary christian music" meaning it would always be the same, and I would find myself wanting to run for the door every minute those bands were playing.

This year, however, I thought I'd give it chance. Skillet was going to be there. I thought I might get in to the music a little because after all, it was worship.

I'd like to thank winter jam for not only making myself want to run out of the coliseum screaming "viva la revolution" but for trying to speak for God by telling me His will. I didn't know that those guys were into prophecy.
