The Church Why Bother? – Christianity Today Magazine A pretty good read and it reminds me of the fact that there is more going on with the church than what I believe. I get so concerned with all the ‘trappings’ of the organization when in reality there is something more important. My growth in Christ. God wants me to be mature in my faith and for this to happen I need to be with people whether I like it or not. It is as I interact with people, the good and the bad of people, that I become more Christlike.
