But I also think part of the draw is the very ancientness of these practices. The very strangeness carries a kind of transcendence they’ve never experienced in their big-box megachurch experiences, which feel like every other kind of “event” they’ve attended in their lives. They realize the church is older than their youth pastor. They might not know to name it this way, but I would say it is the catholicity that they are drawn by.7
