Why do People Need to Go to Church?

Have you gotten strayed away from going to church on a consistent basis? Or you’re going but you’re not involved? Today I want to talk about why you need to get back in church.

INTRODUCTION: Hey everyone my name is Allen Parr and thank you for visiting my channel. We release new videos every single Tuesday and today we are talking about why it’s important to go to church. I’m not sure what your reason is for not going consistently but I want to give you 5 reasons why you should go to church.

1. Christ
a. Jesus went to the place of worship every Saturday consistently. So, if we want to be like Jesus we should attend regularly.
b. Also, the Bible refers to the church as the bride of Christ (Eph. 5:24; Rev. 19:7-9) which means it’s the most important thing to Him. So when we neglect or disregard the church as not being important, what we are saying is “Jesus I love me some you, but I don’t love your wife.”
2. To Contribute
a. One of the biggest problems is that people see church primarily for what they can get out of it instead of what they can contribute to it.
b. I’ve got news for you. The church needs you. You have experiences, gifts, talents and a testimony that someone in the church is not benefitting from what you have to give because you are not involved.
c. Might I remind you also that the Bible is very clear that one day we will have to give an account to God for how we used the gifts He’s given us.
3. Children
a. Even if you don’t believe in regular attendance, do it for your children. Church is a great place for them to learn about moral, ethical behavior and to receive a solid foundation that the Bible says that when they get older there is a high likelihood that they won’t depart from it.
b. It can also be a place for them to discover their gifts and talents and learn about the value of community at a young age.
c. Also, statistics show that couples who attend church together are 35% less likely to divorce than couples who don’t.
4. Community
a. Care – When you are going through your most difficult seasons of life the church is designed to be a place where you can be surrounded by people who genuinely care about you, will pray for you and hold you up at times when you can’t stand by yourself. Also within community is…
b. Counsel – The church is a great place to go if you’re going through a difficult time in your life and you need counsel or maybe you have a big decision to make and you need someone to help you process it.
c. But also within this community are opportunities for you to grow spiritually through Bible studies, conferences, or the Sunday morning experience.

The fifth and final reason is somewhat of a selfish one but that is…

5. Connections
a. Wherever you want to be in life you will not get there alone. And so…
b. The church is a great place to make personal and professional connections that may help you get your family and/or your business where you want them to be.

ENCOURAGEMENT: So I’m not sure what your reason is for why you don’t go to church but I want to encourage you first of all to forgive those who may have hurt you in church and then to find a church that is committed to teaching the word of God and one that you can experience the blessing of true, genuine, authentic community.
