Less than half of Christians go to church regularly. Is that a problem?
5 Reasons to go to church:
- Jesus did it. Luke 4:16, Ephesians 5:24
- The church needs your gifts, talents and abilities. 2 Corinthians 5:10
- It’s good for your kids. Proverbs 22:6
- Gain support from a loving community.
- A great way to make connections.
Discussion:
- Initial reactions to this topic? What jumped out at you?
- Make two lists. What you like about church. What you dislike.
- Read Luke 4:16 and Ephesians 5:24. Why did Jesus value going to his local synagogue? Why do you think Jesus chose to compare his love for us to that of a husband and wife?
- Read Proverbs 22:6. If you grew up in church, what benefits did you get from that? If you’re a parent, why is their value to bringing your kids to church?
- How has your church helped you or someone you know in a time of need? Why is community important?
- Is there a step you need to take based on today’s topic?
