Sometimes I think that church is boring.
Other people think so too.
I've found that the degree of interestingness of church depends on my degree of interest.
It is pretty much the same every Sunday.
Same greeting.
Same people (with a few variations).
Different Psalm.
Similar hymns, confession - and even the basic content of the sermon - Love God, love your neighbour; God can help you do this.
And off we go.
But the Sunday service isn't all that church is.
And the Sunday service is not just the message of the minister.
The Sunday service is an opportunity to pray... to come before the living God.
Everything is designed around a community that comes to connect with God.
To listen for God - beyond a preacher - beyond a song - beyond a prayer - and in the Spirit.
If we open our hearts. If we hunger and thirst for righteousness.
Church can not be boring.
