Charles Spurgeon, known as the Prince of Preachers, once predicted a time when the church would move from shepherds feeding sheep to clowns entertaining goats. Observing our times, it seems we’ve not just fulfilled this prediction, but surpassed it—now, it’s as if even camels are entertaining the goats.
Camels? Yes, Camels.

They put on plays, musicals, and even circus acts, all in the name of “reaching people for Christ.” But let’s be real—these performances are not about spreading the Gospel. They’re about putting butts in seats and lining the church’s pockets.
