Six Flags Over Jesus- The Business of Big Church
from William Branham Historical Research Podcast
John and Chino explore the dramatic rise of megachurch culture and how American consumerism reshaped faith into a spectacle. They compare intimate home-based congregations with today’s oversized entertainment venues, asking whether the push for bigness has come at the cost of discipleship, accountability, and authentic community. With humor and candor, they share personal experiences from cult exits to high-tech worship environments that feel more like sci-fi productions than spiritual gatherings. They also dig into the historical roots behind the phenomenon—from the early revivalists to the strategic church-growth movement—and expose how power, money, and celebrity have created a modern cult of personality. This conversation challenges listeners to consider what truly defines a healthy church and whether the biggest churches might be obscuring the smallest, most essential aspects of faith. ______________________ Weaponized Religion: From Christian Identity to the NAR: Paperback: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1735160962 Kindle: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DCGGZX3K ______________________ – Support the channel: https://www.patreon.com/branham – Subscribe to the channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBSpezVG15TVG-lOYMRXuyQ – Visit the website: https://william-branham.org – Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/WilliamBranhamOrg – Follow on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@william.m.branham – Follow on Twitter: https://twitter.com/wmbhr – Buy the books: https://william-branham.org/site/books
