Why am I watching more TV than usual?

There is something in a good TV show that I don’t get from church. I think most preachers don’t enter full-vulnerability mode when they preach. A character on TV lets us into the intimate moments of their lives and decisions because they don’t know anyone’s watching. It’s an incredible way to watch a person develop and change—and way easier to put yourself into the story. A lot of what happens in church is sanitized. Too stuck in the way things should be instead of exploring the way things are. There are some things we just don’t talk about because it makes us uncomfortable. I wish we could be as honest in church as the characters of my favorite shows.
