Why have people stopped going to church?
When did "church" stop being a community?
Is it related?
Love to hear your thoughts.
I for one, never went until I was invited by my uncle cuz they needed a guitarist for the worship band. I was immediately accepted and treated very well...UNTIL some old battle-axes began whispers of: All the young mothers are too involved with him! A choir singer and friend Mary and I began singing and playing acoustic at hm bible study...which began to be THE place to be Mon, Friday, and every rehearsal Tues & thurs. Wednesday and Sunday services attendance was thru the roof! It was thought that the young mothers were "distracted" by my presence...and they suspected I was leading them to be "too independent" from they're young husbands. 🙄 I was asked to step down "until all was calmed down" regarding my presence. Saturday was the only day I had nothing church related to do. Those nites we all got together anyway and hung out. This was because the young fathers weren't "attentive" enuff to their young wives. My hide was offered to calm them. I left for good. Haven't been since. 🤍😐!
