Make CHURCH a
priority!
Now please hear me out. Not the GPS point on a digital map.
Not a box to check off your weekly calendar or to-do list. Not just a place to
hang out. Not a service time.
From my vantage point, the church in America is quickly
losing sight of the Biblical understanding and value of CHURCH! Church has
become a destination instead of a relationship, maybe even a "venue"
to be entertained or a scheduled box to check.
CHURCH is so much
more.
CHURCH is the
body of Christ – a people of faith belonging to Jesus.
CHURCH is God’s
people called to share the “good news” with a lost world.
CHURCH is sharing
our lives with each other (the good, bad and in-between)
CHURCH is making
time to join together in the praise and worship of God.
CHURCH is a
community of hope and healing.
CHURCH is serving
others meeting practical, physical, emotional, and spiritual needs.
CHURCH is more
than my words can express.
Make CHURCH a
priority!
For CHURCH to be
a priority, you must make your relationship with GOD the most important priority! Spend time today growing deeper in
your love and knowledge of GOD. When
we do that, God will build up a mighty CHURCH
for His glory!
So then you are no longer foreigners
and strangers, but fellow citizens with the saints, and members of God’s
household, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ
Jesus Himself as the cornerstone. The whole building, being put together by
Him, grows into a holy sanctuary in the Lord. You also are being built together
for God’s dwelling in the Spirit. ~ Ephesians 2:19-22
