New Column: Why Go to Church?
My latest column is now available at The Sword Review.
I was asking myself that same question again last Sunday as I tried out a new church (in my new neighborhood). I almost left several times.
The experience, especially the beginning, was so stressful that I was in tears. The church is much bigger than I am used to. Just getting in the parking lot and finding the appropriate place to park was a nerve-wracking traffic jam. Even once inside, the church and service were so loud and crowded and busy that it was overwhelming.
But there among the flash and the noise and the crush of many strangers was the still, small voice of God. So, it was okay.
