Why Go To Church?

Where Is Heaven?

Where Is Heaven?

A Church goer wrote a letter to the editor of a newspaper and complained that it made no sense to go to church every   Sunday. “I’ve gone for 30 years now,” he wrote, “and in that time I have heard something like 3,000 sermons.  But for the life of me, I can’t remember a single one of them.  So, I think I’m wasting my time and the pastors are wasting their time.”

This started a real controversy in the “Letters to the Editor” column, until someone wrote this:

“I’ve been married for 30 years now.  In that time my wife has cooked some 32,000 meals.  But, for the life of me, I cannot recall the entire menu for a single one of those meals.  But I do know this, they all nourished me and gave me the strength I needed to do my work.  If my wife had not given me these meals, I would be physically dead today.  Likewise, if I had not gone to church for nourishment, I would be spiritually dead today!”

When Satan is knocking at your door, simply say, “Jesus, could you get that for me?”

    And all God’s people said, “AMEN!”

    Or like the old man I talked to last Sunday at my brother’s church said, “Now that’s good preachin’!”

  2. jeff says:

    As you said Bob, AMEN!
    Amen indeed!

  3. Reading this as I’m going through my Sunday morning routine leading to worship services.

    It won’t be a routine day. Thanks!

    Amen!
