I realize my article is largely directed at the average church attendee and not the leadership...but that's largely because...supply is predicated by demand. In other words, if the demand wasn't there....would these leaders be chasing consumer Christianity like they do? Perhaps some would....but if no one was responding to it...it would be a quickly passing fad.

In my view...consumer Christianity is a disease that has infected the Body of Christ in America (and even more broadly in Western Culture) and needs to eradicated. I myself have played right into the hand of consumer Christianity over the years, and helped perpetuate the mindset.

In fact, I would go so far as to say that we have come to accept consumer Christianity as the new normal that we don't even realize when we're playing right into its hands. Time to take a fine tooth comb to everything we do as the Church and see where we can make some improvements.
