Why bother with church?
It’s often said that we can worship God just as well at home as at church, so why bother with church?
There are many reasons! We can learn from each other; we support each other; we can help each other to worship
better; we have our understanding broadened; we can give to others... Mostly though, we bother because God,
through the Bible, tells us to.
If we are really serious about following Him, we have to take seriously the things He tells us. Also, we soon come to
realise that there is wisdom in that command. Left on our own, we would so easily start to struggle. Together, we
are stronger.
God has called us together to work with each other. He says that together, we are one body, rather than a collection
of individuals. We know that together, we can do more for Him than we can apart.
