16ft Chocolate Waterwall? Megachurch Turns Church Into High-Production Willy Wonka Factory
LCBC (Lives Changed By Christ) is a non-denominational multisite megachurch with twenty locations spread across Pennsylvania. Founded in 1986 and led by senior pastor Jason Mitchell, last year, they had an average weekly in-person attendance of 14,044, with another 7354 watching online. They had 12,267 first-time guests, baptized 640 people, sponsored 934 children overseas, and gave $41,115,218 in tithes and offerings.
They regularly have ‘At the Movies’ sermon series over the summer, where they show clips from popular movies and then exegete the script, though, unlike some churches that play only a trailer or describe the film, LCBC plays practically half the movie, with their pastors offering pithy reflections after watching multiple 3-5 minute long clips.
In contrast with lower-budged churches, whose decorative efforts are middling and kind of sad, LCBC has gone all out, spending a ton of money on what is an unusually high-end production.
As part of their recent series, one of their locations transformed the church building into the Willy Wonka factory replete with a 16-foot ‘chocolate’ waterfall, all while heating a big cauldron of chocolate so that the entire church smells like the delectable confectionery.
If only their exegesis of scripture and faithfulness to the text matched their zeal to gussy up the church to look like a movie set.
