Ohio Megachurch Pastor Literally Kicks Bible From Stage As Part Of Super Bowl Sunday Themed Service [Video]

The Christian Post reports:

With play-by-play announcers, color commentary, a referee, and a stage covered in AstroTurf, the Crossroads pulpit resembled Allegiant Stadium more than any church on Sunday morning as Senior Pastor Brian Tome and Pastor Alli Patterson sported football jerseys as they took the stage for the “pregame” coin flip. After Tome wins the flip, the referee asks, “Would you like to kick or receive the Bible?”

“I will receive,” Tome replied. Patterson is then seen taking a few steps back as another pastor squares up the Bible — which had a football-style book cover on it — before kicking the Bible off the stage and into the crowd. Patterson then high-fives her colleague in celebration. In another sequence, the Bible is kicked yet again — this time a shorter distance — as the rest of the “players” on stage jump on top of the book as they tackle one another.

Read the full article. The cult is screaming. As you’ll see in the final clip below, the sermon included smoke and flame machines. Also, you’ll note that the bible was decorated to resemble a square football.
