Synopsis "Gather: Loving Your Church as you Celebrate Christ Together (Why go to Church? The Importance of Sunday Corporate Worship - Preaching, Praying,. Faith, Love and Joy. ) (Love Your Church) (in English)"
Why do we meet on Sundays?Now that technology allows us to access services remotely, many see little need to meet face to face every week. Others think that because we have a personal relationship with Jesus as Christians, church is an optional add-on. For some, they know deep down that there is a reason why gathering on Sundays is important, but they are weary and don't feel excited about it. So what is the purpose of corporate worship, and what is our role in it?In this book, Tony Merida highlights how in-person Sunday gatherings are central to God's plans and to our faith and joy. He reminds believers of their privileges as citizens of heaven, members of God's family and stones in God's temple.Readers will see how each part of a church service (preaching, praying, singing, baptism, Lord's Supper and building each other up in conversations) are ways to enjoy and share God's grace, and are therefore essential for spiritual endurance. You'll also be reminded that your presence in corporate worship matters because you have a part to play in encouraging your brothers and sisters and spurring them to love and good deeds: "And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near." (Hebrews 10:24-25)Read this book to renew your understanding and enjoyment of going to church and to be excited by the ways in which your presence can encourage others.
