    Your Reason For Not Attending Church

    I completely agree. My husband and I dream of a casual church where people just get together to fellowship and worship as they feel led. But fellowship is no longer in church unless you are part of the "popular" crowd and church shouldn't be that way. In reality I avoid church functions...

    Your Reason For Not Attending Church

    Thank you. I will look into it. My mom runs the awana program at church so we are at least involved with that. Sadly the church has made it clear that they don't care.

    Thanks I think the worst part is that I didn't find any kindness in this group of Christians. One actually was holding a grudge against me for putting my family before her kid and I'm just so done with the drama.

    I feel taken advantage of

    I have worked so hard serving the families of the church through the children's programs since I was a child myself. I recently had to step down from a position and the remaining people decided they wanted an unrealistic number of volunteers to continue so the group will no longer be meeting...
