Very rarely, maybe two times a year if even that.

It was once a week, now it's sometimes 2-3 times per week, depending upon our Youth Meetings. I know I really enjoy my time there and helping with the teens of our church is something that ends up doing more for me than them sometimes! I am so very proud of them!

I'd like to add this... if you are a teen and interested in joining a church Youth Group or perhaps your school's FCA group, I am sure there are group leaders and/or Youth Ministers, who would be happy to help you! If you are out of school and interested, I can't think of one church or FCA group, who couldn't use another helping hand!

I talk to GOD each day and have a strong belief I will do it my way and let other do it their way and I will never tell them how to do it.

We go as often as possible. Sad to say, but youth sports take no conisderation for Sunday mornings.

**blitz43** · 01-26-2009, 10:22 AM

I go to Sunday School, Sunday Evening, & Wed. Night Bible Study. I lead the singing and have a great time. Up until about 2 months ago, I only went to Sunday School. I was getting real lazy. We had a revival and one of the messages that really hit home was about each member doing their part and not just sitting around. It got me good. I love it more than ever now. Great fellowship, good teaching, & hopefully good singing...LOL

Me too. Sometimes sports gets interferes, but not that often. I love to go to church, but I also want my kids to have a life outside of church. I believe that if parents push church, church, church 100% of the time then kids will grow up to rebel against it. Don't get me wrong I don't miss anymore services with sports than most people in the summer time for vacations.

I was made to go to church as a kid. Everytime the doors were open, we had to go. I am glad they made me go. Thanx Mom & Dad! That is the single best thing they could have done for me.

Yep, sounds like my story as well.

**Aslan** · 01-28-2009, 04:57 PM

I try to go everytime the doors open. How can ya miss worshiping, praising, and learning about the Creator of all life.

HAIL PIKEVILLE! · 01-28-2009, 05:34 PM

With my job its hard for me to make it every sunday and our church doesnt have wednesday services but I at least try to go 1-2 times per month.

thumbsdown · 01-28-2009, 11:55 PM

Twice on Sundays and Wednesday

NEVER! I dont see the point, especially when theres nothing they can tell me that I dont already know. Besides, you dont have to go to church to experience god. I also think its the most boring thing ever, sitting there listening to people yammer on and on about stuff that no one can prove. Its anyones choice if they want to go, but I will not and cannot bring myself to go.

Ah, you must be young. You think you "know everything."

I completely disagree. Church is a great experience for anyone who goes. I'm not going to get into a religious argument with you but I do want to say that you should consider going sometime.

That is a great thing to do.

**More Cowbell** · 01-29-2009, 03:58 PM

I go on Sunday mornings to Sunday school, then stay for worship service. Go again on Sunday night for another worship service. Then I go on Wednesday night to help teach the children's groups.

I enjoy church, and I think it's good for all Christians to have some fellowship time with other believers.

I grew up going on Saturday night, Sunday morning, sunday night, Wednesday night.

Now, I go to sunday morning worship, and I have an option of what time that is. I routinely make it with my wife at least twice a month three at the most. Shamefull, but we have allowed the sports activities of our children to dictate how and when we go to church. No one to blame but us, the parents!!!!

Everytime I leave church I feel like I left with more than I came in with. I get a better understand on God, the way He does things, the way we should do things, how to handle difficult situations, or simply my faith is stronger. God is awesome and His power has no limits. I don't see how someone can look up at the stars at night and not say everything was created by God. Everything He does is perfect and is done at exactly the right time. Everything he does has a purpose. We was brought here by faith not by chance!
