Choosing the cheap

In his series on "Unshackling the American Church," Dan Edelen writes against the North American church's appetite for spiritual kitsch:
The American Church's wholesale abandonment of that which is sacred and infused with meaning for that which is cheap has taken a terrible toll. Our attempts to prove culturally relevant have shown that we value what is cheap over what has meaning, rather than going the opposite way of the world.
At the same time he exposes the church's abandonment of quality and meaning, Dan offers specific advice for reclaiming it.

Interested article. Ever noticed how for the sake of saving money this country has chosen the cheap over the well made? I seems the church has followed this path to, the path of least resistance.
