Once again, clear indication that churches fail to teach theology to their congregants. Instead spending time focused on "feel" good messages. A great place to start is going through the Minor Prophets, but I would guess most pastors probably haven't preached a sermon in these areas. Then I would hit Ecclesiastes.
