To some, 
church is a place you go to get married or a place you are forced to attend on Easter at the prodding of your grandmother. To some, the church is just an irrelevant group of people that teach about what you should and shouldn’t do. Well, we are here to tell you that the church is very important in God’s eyes. It is relevant because God is relevant. The church is not, or should not, be about religion, but about a relationship with Christ. And as we seek to know God more and serve him better, we understand that God designed the Christian to do so in a caring and committed community of believers. It is when we are in relationships that point us to Christ that we honor him most!

Have you ever attended a professional baseball game? I remember back to when I was just a boy traveling from New Mexico to LA to watch the Dodgers play; Darrell Strawberry was my favorite player at that point and I was so excited to see him play. I had seen many games on TV, collected Topps, Upperdeck and other baseball cards, and followed the sport as best as I could.
But at that mid-afternoon California game… everything changed.
Participating with others who loved the very same thing as I, interacting with the sights and sounds of what baseball was about with people who shared my interests, my love, my commitment. Baseball was never the same!
Many of us live our Christian life just as I followed my baseball. We read the literature, we talk about and to God, but we fail to participate with those who love him as we do. The Christian life was not meant to be lived in isolation.
As followers (disciples) of Christ, we best grow when:
- We experience life with those who are learning
- We are accountable to to fellow learners for continued growth
- We are affirmed and loved in our Christian walk
- We are part of a structure that allows, supports, and urges growth.
Why attend church? Because I need you, you need me, and together we point each other to the Cross!
