If you do not have a church you attend regularly, we suggest that you find a good Bible-believing church suitable for you, and its focus is to honor Jesus Christ! We need to attend church because God wants us to fellowship and grow closer to God and others.  Many people think the church is just a brick-and-mortar building that people go to on Sundays. The people make up the body of Christ, which we call the church.

Remember, there is no such thing as a perfect church; the church is made up of born-again believers, seekers, and sinners. (All of us have sinful natures due to original sin from Adam and Eve). But the church is like a hospital to heal and grow closer to God. When a person goes to church, they fellowship, learn from God’s word, and they should get involved in more than just listening to the pastor speak. They ought to apply it to their lives and share it with others. It is a good rule of thumb to stay at one church, but sometimes there are reasons to change churches. Here are a few essential things to think about and pray about before considering changing churches and looking for a new church. ~ Bill Greguska

Hebrews 10:24-25  And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.

Find a Good Church And Keep It Simple

Here are four characteristics that all the people from a good church should have that my friend Jackie Hynes shared with me:

  1. Love God

Anyone who is to find Christ must first find the church. How could anyone know where Christ is and what faith is in him unless he knew where his believers were? ~ Martin Luther

What I Believe About The Church

How To Find A Good Church? NeedEncourgement.com

A Bible-believing church is where God’s word is taught.

People in the church are held to a higher standard than other people. The pastors and staff significantly influence many people, so the higher standard comes into play. People tell me they can follow Jesus Christ without attending church every Sunday. There is some truth to that claim, but in reality, Christians need others to help build them up, teach them God’s word, walk together in fellowship, and be there for them physically when they need compassion, encouragement, wisdom, and support. My church life began when I was born; I attended St. Gregory Catholic school from 4th grade until 8th grade. Then when I was about 28 years old, I put aside my Catholic faith. I attended my first real Bible-believing church, Elmbrook, for 23 years. ~ Bill Greguska

 

 

 

 

 

 

Looking To Find A Good Church?

Are you looking for a good Bible believing church? NeedEncourgement.com

Are you using God as your anchor? Or are you getting tossed by the waves of this world? Find a good church to get plugged into!

I started to attend Elmbrook church right after getting out of long-term alcohol and drug treatment. God healed me from my addictions; then He started working on my salvation, regeneration, and a closer walk with the Lord. Shortly after that, I attended Elmbrook, a Bible-believing church, from 1989 until 2016. I was under good teaching by Pastor Stuart Briscoe and was grounded in my faith at Elmbrook. Then in 2016, I started going to Redeemer Evangelical Free Church. Redeemer is also a Bible-believing church.

I mention this because it does not matter what church you attend. Just as long as it is a Bible-believing church that you get connected to. Also, keep in mind that a church is not meant for saints. A church is a hospital for sinners to get well, find the light, and share it with others! The Christian faith starts in the home, branches out to the church, and then reaches out to others in the community who are already Christians and not Christians. Find a good church and get involved. Ask God if the church you are in now could be improved with your help. Suppose you are new to the area and searching for a good church. Finding a good church is significant. Do not just show up to the church; get involved and know and grow with others in your church. Be sure that the church is a Bible-believing church and that you visit it before you join. Make sure you know what the church believes before joining. ~ Bill Greguska
