I'm very glad that some of you have a wonderful church. But it would appear that at least two don't. And I'd probably be correct in guessing that it wasn't just ONE church thats mentioned, but several. Enough actually to make it "appear" as though church was less than helpful in their journey. Mine included.
Is it so difficult to fathom a church that doesn't look after its congregation's spiritual needs? Well, we have a hard time seeing one that does.
You're right. Its perspective. Doesn't make one wrong or less right.
You guys tend to get very defensive here.
If your church is so special, extend an invitation.
"You're wrong!" As a reply Is just immature.
And if my glasses are a little less than rose colored, pardon me my skepticism.
I grew up in church. Doesn't make me an authority, but it absolutely gives me a right to say "church has become less than it was meant to be, far less."
Its a matter of opinion. Which the OP is entitled to have.
If I'd had a wonderful church I'd be happy to explain why i think Church is wonderful. I don't think I'd jump in with you're using the wrong eyes or you're wrong or one mud puddle doesn't make all water muddy. OP didn't say all churches.. So why be extreme?
