Bandwagon Christianity

The “bandwagon effect”, also called the “herd instinct” is the observation that people often do and believe things, even without examining the merit of a particular thing, because many other people do and believe the same things.  It occurs in the spiritual realm as well.  Jesus challenges the crowds to count the cost before jumping on the bandwagon.  

Luke 14:25-33
