I have a question for everyone. I am a Christian. I believe that Jesus died on that cross for my sins and paved the way for me to go to heaven. Is everyone here church going people? I have had a rough time with churches, so I tend to stick with taped or broadcasted studies, or studies with people that focus on one thing, such as David, or Daniel.

Yep, I am church going. It can be hard to find the right church. I know that we visited many before, thankfully, finding our home church. I don't think that you necessarily have to sit in a church pew, but should fellowship with believers. You are doing that.

Debi, I have been a church goer all my life 43 years, until the last year. I have found that the area where I live there are no bible believing churches left. They all have a watered down gospel with a Starbucks in the lobby and that goes against everything I beleive in. There is not a church in driving distance that I would attend and I HATE it. I feel so lost and alone. We try to do the church at home thing, but I would love it if we had a family to do it with and not just ourselves.

I do that regularly. I do subscribed to "When two or more gather in His name..." My issue with churches has not been the teachings, but the judgement from members. Even Calvary Chapel. I have several friends that are non believers, live "alernative lifestyles", etc. And I found myself being labeled as "needing help". My problem is that I LOVE going to church and the worship music and hearing the word. I do not like the conversations afterwards.

I guess I am lucky that most of our friends, and our families are Christians too. Redneck about it, but Christians. After my last experience with church, I am very content to sit at home with Ken and watch the bible shows on the history channel and tear them apart. They are SOOO misleading!
