Well, people I returned in person for the first time to my church after a long absence, most of it I attended online. I have to say that while you get the service, you sit in on the Bible Studies, in the end, there is no substitute for being there. It says in Hebrews 10:25 "not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another - and all the more as you see the Day approaching." I returned today and found I really did have a church family, unlike anything I have ever had in my entire life. I wonder now why I waited so long to go back. I was welcomed like a long-lost brother. Overwhelming. It made me see in Technicolor that you cannot go it alone, we are not meant to be alone.

This forum is also a family of brothers and sisters in Christ and I don't think anyone would disagree that the need for such family is more necessary than ever in these times.
