Take Me Back to Church
Maybe sitting in church made you squirm or you had to wear a crinoline that scratched. Possibly the preacher had a slow monotone voice that gave you heavy lids. Even worse, maybe those sermons made you feel like that man in the pulpit knew more about what you'd done Saturday night than you wanted anyone to know, so as soon as you moved out from under momma's church going demanding hand you quickly quit going and got some much needed sleep on Sunday morning.
Did COVID disrupt your church going routine and you find it's just simpler to sit in front of your phone or computer and catch a service in your pajamas while eating pancakes?
Gathering together to worship the Lord is part of his plan for us. He has created us to be relational people and we benefit from coming together to worship the Lord. It's a weekly mission trip when we go with a heart turned outward ready to encourage others. Also, others are watching our weekly walks and seeing our commitment to "worship the Lord together with fellow believers" and that speaks volumes to our friends and neighbors.
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God. Colossians 3:16
Not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near. Hebrews 10:25
And they devoted themselves to the apostles teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers. Acts 2:42
Head to the house of the Lord!
