Spider-man and Money

I wanted to follow up on the previous article about Spider-Man. Some of you may have heard that Spider-Man 3's box office draw was incredible for the first week ... somewhere beyond $300 million for one weekend. That breaks down to approximately $35,000 per theatre.

Wow!

It says a great deal about our culture these days when one weekend (four days at most) at the movies generates more money than most people will see for an entire year as a paycheck.

Here's a question: how can churches compete with the entertainment industry? Should churches try to compete?

What do you think?

Did you see Spider-Man 3 ... why was it better than being at church? What can church offer that movies cannot?
