I left the church a couple of years ago and don’t attend church services anymore. I found the church is only relevant for people with money and middle class families who live middle class lives. So I left and now just live a normal life in the community. I have Christian friends who I socialise with and meet up with but don’t attend any formal services.
In that time I wrote a book and am writing number 2. Conducted some bible studies with the homeless and creating a few social media Christian groups and have started building an online website ministry.
No longer was I interested in sitting in the pews and just being donged on the head with information and having to support some guy on more money than me.
When people think Church they think worship band, pews, coffee store, book store and a good sermon.
To me the Church are God's people wherever they are doing whatever they are called to do. The Church are actually Christians in Prison, the homeless guy on the street to crazy and poor to be in a middle class church but wants to go to heaven, and many other Christians in all sorts of different circumstances around the world.
The church is wondering why people are leaving the church. Maybe some are but if you’re a Christian and leave the institutionalised form of Church to serve God don’t let the guilt stop you from doing whatever Gods called you to do. Not everyone has been called to hold down a secular 9-5 job and sit in the pews on the weekend.
