hello,
So my Father has been a pastor since I was born. Our church has struggled since I was born. I am 21 and live at home with my parents while I’m in school. We started doing house church because we lost our building. I do not want to participate in our church anymore for a multitude of reasons. But I’m struggling to see if they are selfish or not. So I’ll list them out for you:
So my Father has been a pastor since I was born. Our church has struggled since I was born. I am 21 and live at home with my parents while I’m in school. We started doing house church because we lost our building. I do not want to participate in our church anymore for a multitude of reasons. But I’m struggling to see if they are selfish or not. So I’ll list them out for you:
- Our family does everything in our church. I feel like we focus too much on the administrative stuff and not on the content or loving of our members.
- I can’t focus in church.
- My dad’s sermons are increasing political.
- Our service is not long enough. We have 30 minutes of worship and 30 minutes of preaching... if we start on time
- There is only 3-4 scriptures in the sermons he writes
- He preaches every 4 weeks but in the meantime, designated leaders (the people whose house we are at) “preaches.”
- The sermons seam more like a bible study
- The sermons seam “watered down.” I don’t feel challenged to change my ways
- There is no one my age.
- I like our worship style, it’s just not long enough.
- I like the very few people that come.
- Sometimes I really enjoy my father’s sermons.
