The Point of Church: And Why It Should Matter to You

The Point of Church: And Why It Should Matter to You

What’s the point of going to church? Why get up so early in the morning, put on a bunch of uncomfortable clothes, sing the same songs, give away your hard-earned money, shake hands with people you don’t really even know (and sometimes don’t even like), and end up wasting your entire Sunday morning? Why do people put themselves through this on a weekly basis? This book is meant to help people understand that there is a point to church, a perfectly logical reason millions of people attend worship services around the world every week, and a reason men and women have dedicated their lives to serve in their local churches. There’s a reason people sell everything they own and fly halfway around the world to start churches in cultures they know nothing about. Read this book with an open mind and an open heart, and you will discover that there is a point to church! "Why does the American church seem to be languishing? The Point of Church addresses this question by diagnosing the problems of the church-but greater, giving the prescription with honest and biblical answers. If the principles in this book are practiced, not only will the church and kingdom flourish, so will the followers of Christ. But most of all, God is glorified." -Robbie Weems, pastor of Vincent First Baptist Church Steven Weems is the senior pastor at the First Baptist Church of Leeds, Alabama.
