The church should be providing a counter-cultural balance to our fame obsession. Instead, we feed into it.
Fame is about one thing. Pride.
And pride is a sin. But we treat it like it’s a virtue. Even in the church.
We elevate a handful of people to Christian Celebrity status (such an obnoxious term!), then we’re shocked when the weight of that celebrity contributes to their burnout and/or moral failure.
