“Stop acting like you care about this,” said Michael Todd, his point being that people should care much more about what they put into their own bodies—which the Bible describes as a temple where the Holy Spirit lives—than they do about a Bible or a set depicting a church.
As the pastor was putting whipped cream on the Bible, someone called out for him to put some “on the picture” too. Todd obliged and then picked up a carton of 18 eggs and started chucking them at the set. “Stop acting bothered,” he said in response to continued exclamations from church members. “We don’t care about this.”
“We get it,” someone called out.
“No you don’t,” he replied, going on to ask why people care about these “symbols of Christianity when it’s not even the place where the Holy Spirit is dwelling.”
After tossing pizza and egg rolls on the set, Todd said that he needed eight volunteers to sit in the chairs that were covered in food, although the pastor did not actually require this in the end. When the volunteers took the stage, he said that it would be “inhumane” to expect them to sit in the food but asked the church members to consider that we show the Holy Spirit this very disrespect on a regular basis.
As he closed his sermon, Pastor Michael Todd challenged his congregants to walk 30 minutes every day for 28 days. He encouraged them to be patient with themselves, saying that it took him three years to get to a place where he was physically healthy. “We are gonna be fit to finish!” he said.
