Two things really sadden me here. First, a church that pursues these "extras" in worship (the list is endless beyond drama, how about interpretive dance?) has generally forgotten that God is our audience in worship. Often this is so, because churches have lost sight of who God is and the wonder of being able to praise and adore him for his incredible attributes.

Secondly, a willingness to flaunt the second commandment suggests that the law has ceased to be recognized in the church and all the power that it brings in convicting man and driving him to Christ, seeing Christ's mercy in forgiving our violation of the law, and observing the purity of God's character as reflected in the law.
