re: What do people get out of going to church on Easter once a year?

The bible says it's not good for man to be alone. Church is meant to be a community of believers supporting and building each other up so that we can be better disciples in the world. Unfortunately there are many churches that do not hold this view. There are churches who pound you for tithe money. There are churches who judge other people and don't preach the gospel. What church is truly meant to be though is a support system that helps you learn the word and then apply it to your life.


Salvation and Christianity is not a singular experience. The whole ideaology is based on a relationship. A relationship with god and with other people. So saying that you can be a Christ follower but not partake in any relationships with the body of Christ (fellow members of the church) is missing a major commandment of god. Plus it's just really nice to have people around you who have your back and support you and your family.
