Your Question:
What's the point of going to church when I'm still struggling?
Answer:
I understand the struggle of feeling like you're still grappling with life's challenges despite attending church. It's easy to get discouraged and wonder if it's all worth it. But let me tell you, my friend, the church is not just a place to go on Sundays; it's a community of believers who are called to support and encourage one another in our walk with Christ. As someone who pastors a local evangelical church, I've seen firsthand the power of community in helping people navigate life's difficulties. We're not meant to fight this battle alone; God has given us one another to help us stay on the path and lift each other up when we fall. That's why I encourage you to get involved in your local church, to find a community that can support and encourage you in your walk with Christ. It's not about feeling comfortable or perfect; it's about doing what you believe is right, even when it's hard. As the Bible says, "Look to Me, and not to others." We come to church not to judge others or to find perfection, but to focus on Christ and to be reminded of His love and presence in our lives. So, I urge you to keep coming to church, to keep seeking God's guidance and support, and to trust that He will use His people to help you through the tough times.
