What has been your past experience in local church attendance? Explain the positive and the negative.
-
My past experience with a local church has been great. The positive side of it is because we have people to lean back onto to help with emotional situations and to be there together.
-
My local church has been incredibly important in my walk with the Lord, and in my own spiritual development. The people and the teaching have been really important, as has the ability to serve the church and those in my community.
-
I’ve been pretty consistent in attending a local church and getting plugged in to serve. Consistency in a local church helps to fill my own heart and soul so that ministry can come from an overflowing heart rather than an empty heart. However, I find myself at times doing too much and not having a ton of space to be invested in to through the local church.
-
I used to be influences by the consumeristic mindset behind church instead of being focused on serving faithfully the whole body of Christ under the headship of Christ for the upbuilding of the body and for the purpose of being a beacon to the world.

I have been to several different kind of churches. I was raised Catholic and received Christ their after my Priest got saved and led many to the Lord, including my Mom. My Mom then led us to Jesus. I was then in a Reformed Episcopal church, where I married my beloved husband who was raised Baptist. I’ve attended Presbyterian, Methodist, Nazarene, but where I feel most at ease are in Non-denominational Churches, because of the immense diversity there. My Dad entered the Cult of Jehovah’s Witnesses when I was 9 years old and so I was raised in a divided home where much controversy took place. But through much prayer and my Mom’s faithful love, Christ led my Dad to Himself after 22 years as a JW.
