What future does the church we know today have?
I have been thinking about this a lot. Back when I was growing up....EVERYONE went to EVERY Revival at all of the neighboring churches EVERY Spring and EVERY Fall.
Sundays..............we went to church. NO QUESTIONS.....NO EXCUSES.
Today...we can not even get the people to attend Sunday Morning regular....much less any other meeting time.
- The weather is too pretty
- The weather is too bad
- The fish are biting
- The ball fields or courts are calling our names
- It is our Family Day
- It is our ONLY day off
What example are we setting for the young folks who will be left to carry on the church of tomorrow? They are not being taught that it is important. They are being taught that EVERYTHING ELSE is MORE important.
I fear that the church we know today....will not exist when we are gone.
PRAY....PRAY....PRAY.....for the future of our CHURCHES
for the future of our CHILDREN
for the future of our GRANDKIDS
IF WE don't set the example...NO ONE WILL!
