Finding a good church is not hard, but the wrong priorities will make it a lot more complicated. Here are a few humerous looks at what some people look for in a church. (NOTE: The clips below may take a minute to load, so be patient, they are worth the wait!) This video clip is from a cartoon called King of the Hill which offers a funny look at a serious issue. In this episode, the Hills become quite offended at the Rev. Stroop when their usual pew in church is taken by a new family. Peggy suggests they go in search of a new place to worship. Maybe you can relate to some of what the Hills experience?
This is a funny, and sad, look at people who are looking for a "me" church. The sad part is there is no shortage of "me" churches.
Clearly there are a lot of choices out there, and I hope you can see that not all choices are good ones. So how do you select a good church? Let us suggest three simple criteria: Pick a church that preaches the historical Gospel of Jesus Christ. Pick a church that is actively demonstrates God's love for people. Pick a church that challanges you to look beyond "me" and serve others.
