Someone once described a church as a group of porcupines in a snowstorm:
we need each other to keep warm, but the closer we get, the more we poke each other—and the more uncomfortable we become.
But of course, it shouldn’t be that way. A church should be a place of warmth and fellowship, a place where even the newest member or latest visitor feels welcome and at home.
Is this true in your church?
Simply attending a worship service doesn’t automatically mean closer relationships with others.
If you are an old-timer in your church, go out of your way to welcome visitors and new members.
And if you are a visitor or new member, make a special effort to get to know people.
- What Bible classes are held?
- Does a group of people your age meet regularly?
Don’t depend only on one worship service a week to help you meet people or grow closer to Christ. If this step sounds a little daunting, remember that your best Friend of all—Jesus Christ—will be with you each step of the way.
